Using Whole Genome Sequences to Investigate Adenovirus Outbreaks, Including Five Deaths in a Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Unit

2020-11-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Human mastadenoviruses (HAdV) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality amongst the immunocompromised population. A recent surge in HAdV cases, including five deaths, amongst a haematopoietic stem cell transplant population led us to use whole genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate. <h4>Methods</h4> To gain a complete transmission picture, we compared outbreak and non-outbreak seq...
