Evolution of norovirus [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2014
Norovirus (NoV) is now the dominant aetiological agent of acute gastroenteritis, and, with the recent introduction of rotavirus vaccines in many countries, this is likely to remain the case. NoV has a significant impact on human wellbeing in terms of morbidity, economic costs and mortality in developing countries.

Association between breastfeeding, host genetic factors, and calicivirus gastroenteritis in a Nicaraguan birth cohort.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
BackgroundNorovirus and sapovirus are important causes of childhood acute gastroenteritis (AGE). Breastfeeding prevents AGE generally; however, it is unknown if breastfeeding prevents AGE caused specifically by norovirus and sapovirus.MethodsWe ...

Infection control for norovirus [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2014
Norovirus infections are notoriously difficult to prevent and control, owing to their low infectious dose, high shedding titre, and environmental stability. The virus can spread through multiple transmission routes, of which person-to-person and foodborne are the most important.

Identification of immune and viral correlates of norovirus protective immunity through comparative study of intra-cluster norovirus strains.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2013
Whether or not primary norovirus infections induce protective immunity has become a controversial issue, potentially confounded by the comparison of data from genetically distinct norovirus strains.

The State of Norovirus Vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2014
Noroviruses represent the most important cause of acute gastroenteritis worldwide; however, currently no licensed vaccine exists. Widespread vaccination that minimizes overall norovirus disease burden would benefit the entire population, but targeted vaccination of specific populations such as healthcare workers may further mitigate the risk of severe ...
