Whole Genome Sequencing and Genetic Diversity of Respiratory Viruses Detected in Children With Acute Respiratory Infections: A One-Year Cross-Sectional Study in Senegal.

Abstract excerpt

Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are a health priority, especially in countries with limited resources. They are a major cause of morbidity and mortality, especially among children and the elderly. In Senegal, the endemic circulation of respiratory viruses other than influenza has been demonstrated. However, there is a paucity of data exploring the genetic diversity of these viruses based on whole-genome...
