Recombination in enteroviruses is a biphasic replicative process involving the generation of greater-than genome length 'imprecise' intermediates [PDF]
Recombination in enteroviruses provides an evolutionary mechanism for acquiring extensive regions of novel sequence, is suggested to have a role in genotype diversity and is known to have been key to the emergence of novel neuropathogenic variants of ...

Since April 2016 after global cessation of using trivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (tOPV) and switch to bivalent OPV consisting of polioviruses types 1 and 3 (the “switch”), any isolation of type 2 poliovirus has been regarded as an event of extreme ...

Reduced mucosal immunity to poliovirus after cessation of trivalent oral polio vaccine
The switch from using only trivalent oral polio vaccine (tOPV) to sequential schedules combining inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) and bivalent oral polio vaccine (bOPV) for polio vaccination will cause changes to mucosal immunity against polio in ...

Transmission of Imported Vaccine‐Derived Poliovirus in an Undervaccinated Community in Minnesota [PDF]
Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) has not been used in the United States since 2000. Type 1 vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) was identified in September 2005, from an unvaccinated Amish infant hospitalized in Minnesota with severe combined immunodeficiency.

Long-Term Excretion of Vaccine-Derived Poliovirus by a Healthy Child [PDF]
ABSTRACT A child was found to be excreting type 1 vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) with a 1.1% sequence drift from Sabin type 1 vaccine strain in the VP1 coding region 6 months after he was immunized with oral live polio vaccine. Seventeen type 1 poliovirus isolates were recovered from stools taken from this child during the following 4 ...

Circulation of Type 2 Vaccine-Derived Poliovirus in China in 2018-2019. [PDF]
Abstract Background China implemented the globally synchronized switch from trivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (tOPV) to bivalent OPV (bOPV) on May 1, 2016. During April 2018 to May 2019, the first outbreak caused by type 2 circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV2) after the switch occurred in ...

Population and Geospatial Risks of Vaccine-Derived Poliovirus Type-2 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo [PDF]
Poliovirus, once a global pandemic is now in its endgame eradication stages. Currently, wild poliovirus type 2 and 3 have been declared eradicated by the World Health Organization (WHO) and wild type 1 is circulating in just two remaining countries.

Managing the risk of circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus during the endgame: oral poliovirus vaccine needs [PDF]
The Global Polio Eradication Initiative plans for coordinated cessation of oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) use, beginning with serotype 2-containing OPV (i.e., OPV2 cessation) followed by the remaining two OPV serotypes (i.e., OPV13 cessation). The risk of circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV) outbreaks after OPV cessation of any serotype ...

The detection of 3 ambiguous type 2 vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPV2s) in Uganda
Background The Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV or Sabin) is genetically unstable and may mutate to form vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPVs). Methods In 2014, two VDPVs type 2 were identified during routine surveillance of acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) cases ...
