Evolution and world-wide distribution of varicella-zoster virus clades.

Infection, genetics and evolution : journal of molecular epidemiology and evolutionary genetics in infectious diseases - 1 Jan 2011

Schmidt-Chanasit Jonas, Sauerbrei Andreas

Abstract excerpt

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV, Human herpesvirus 3), a world-wide distributed pathogen, is the causative agent of varicella (chickenpox) and zoster (shingles). Both diseases result in significant morbidity and economic burden. The implementation of routine varicella vaccination programs in many countries may reduce significantly the incidence of varicella disease. Furthermore, vaccination against zoster can...
