Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Echovirus 30 (E-30) was responsible in France for a major aseptic meningitis outbreak during 2005 summer season. However, the virological mechanisms responsible for the periodic emergence of the epidemic strains remain to be investigated. OBJECTIVES: To assess the genetic diversity of two genome regions, VP1 and 3Dpol, of echovirus 30 strains isolated during the 2005 aseptic meningitis outbreak in...
