Zika virus evolution and spread in the Americas

Hayden C. Metsky, +81 more
- 24 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is found that ZIKV circulated undetected in multiple regions for many months before the first locally transmitted cases were confirmed, highlighting the importance of surveillance of viral infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic epidemiology reveals multiple introductions of Zika virus into the United States.

Nathan D. Grubaugh, +76 more
- 24 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that at least 4 introductions, but potentially as many as 40, contributed to the outbreak in Florida and that local transmission is likely to have started in the spring of 2016—several months before its initial detection.

Multiple Introductions of Zika Virus into the United States Revealed through Genomic Epidemiology

Nathan D. Grubaugh, +65 more
- 02 Feb 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is discovered that ZIKV moved among transmission zones in Miami and most introductions are phylogenetically linked to the Caribbean, a finding corroborated by the high incidence rates and traffic volumes from the region into the Miami area.

Genome sequencing reveals Zika virus diversity and spread in the Americas

Hayden C. Metsky, +60 more
- 18 Feb 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is found that ZIKV circulated undetected in many regions of the Americas for up to a year before the first locally transmitted cases were confirmed, highlighting the challenge of effective surveillance for this virus.
