Analysis of United Kingdom wild-type strains of varicella-zoster virus: differentiation from the Oka vaccine strain.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Sept 1997

Hawrami K, Breuer J

Abstract excerpt

In Japan and the United States, where vaccination against varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection with the live attenuated Oka strain of varicella is routine, cases of chickenpox or shingles occurring in vaccinees can be caused by either wild-type or vaccine virus. Differentiating such cases is important epidemiologically and can be achieved only using molecular typing methods. In the United Kingdom, the Oka...
