TL;DR: Establishing a global NoV network by which data on strains with the potential to cause pandemics can be rapidly exchanged may lead to improved prevention and intervention strategies, and show notable differences in geographic prevalence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Indications for worldwide increased norovirus activity associated with emergence of a new variant of genotype II.4, late 2012
J. van Beek,Katia Ambert-Balay,N Botteldoorn,John-Sebastian Eden,Jannik Fonager,Joanne Hewitt,Nobuhiro Iritani,Annelies Kroneman,Harry Vennema,Jan Vinjé,Peter A. White,Marion Koopmans +11 more
TL;DR: Molecular datashared through the NoroNet network suggest that the increase in norovirus activity in late 2012 is related to the emergence of a newnorovirus genotype II.4 variant, termed Sydney 2012.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decay of SARS-CoV-2 and surrogate murine hepatitis virus RNA in untreated wastewater to inform application in wastewater-based epidemiology.
Warish Ahmed,Paul M. Bertsch,Kyle Bibby,Eiji Haramoto,Joanne Hewitt,Flavia Huygens,Pradip Gyawali,Asja Korajkic,Shane Riddell,Samendra P. Sherchan,Stuart L. Simpson,Kwanrawee Sirikanchana,Erin M. Symonds,Rory Verhagen,Seshadri S. Vasan,Masaaki Kitajima,Aaron Bivins +16 more
TL;DR: Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) demonstrates potential for COVID-19 community monitoring; however, data on the stability of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater are needed to interpret WBE results, and MHV is suggested as suitable persistence surrogate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of a novel GII.17 norovirus – End of the GII.4 era?
M. de Graaf,J. van Beek,Harry Vennema,Alexander T. Podkolzin,Joanne Hewitt,Filemon Bucardo,Kate Templeton,Janet Mans,Johan Nordgren,Gábor Reuter,M. Lynch,Lasse Dam Rasmussen,Nobuhiro Iritani,Martin C.W. Chan,Vito Martella,Katia Ambert-Balay,Jan Vinjé,Peter A. White,Marion Koopmans +18 more
TL;DR: An overview of the available information on GII.P17-GII.17 norovirus in context of current knowledge on the epidemiology of noroviruses is provided to gain insight in the viral and host characteristics of this norov virus genotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The global increase in norovirus-associated gastroenteritis in 2006 was linked to the emergence of 2 novel GII.4 variants, 2006a and 2006b.
