Genome analysis of Rift Valley fever virus, Mayotte

Emerg Infect Dis. 2012 Jun;18(6):969-71. doi: 10.3201/eid1806.110994.

Abstract

As further confirmation of a first human case of Rift Valley fever in 2007 in Comoros, we isolated Rift Valley fever virus in suspected human cases. These viruses are genetically closely linked to the 2006-2007 isolates from Kenya.
