Abstract excerpt
Since 1998, enterovirus A71 (EV-A71) has caused several outbreaks in Taiwan with hundreds of severe cases and deaths. EV-A71 exhibits a high genome mutation rate, resulting in a diverse viral population, called quasispecies. However, the consequence of variations found in quasispecies with EV-A71 viral virulence remains elusive. In this study, we aim to analyze the viral genomes of severe and mild clinical...
