Genomic detection of a virus lineage replacement event of dengue virus serotype 2 in Brazil, 2019

<p><strong>BACKGROUND:</strong> Despite efforts to mitigate the impact of DENV epidemics, the virus remains a public health problem in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. Most DENV cases in the Americas between January and July 2019 were reported in Brazil. São Paulo...

description <p><strong>BACKGROUND:</strong> Despite efforts to mitigate the impact of DENV epidemics, the virus remains a public health problem in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. Most DENV cases in the Americas between January and July 2019 were reported in Brazil. São Paulo state in the southeast of Brazil has reported nearly half of all DENV infections in the country.</p> <p><strong>OBJECTIVES:</strong> To understand the origin and dynamics of the 2019 DENV outbreak.</p> <p><strong>METHODS:</strong> Here using portable nanopore sequencing we generated 20 new DENV genome sequences from viremic patients with suspected dengue infection residing in two of the most-affected municipalities of Sao Paulo state, Araraquara and São José do Rio Preto. We conducted a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis with 1,630 global DENV strains to better understand the evolutionary history of the DENV lineages that currently circulate in the region.</p> <p><strong>FINDINGS:</strong> The new outbreak strains were classified as DENV2 genotype III (American/Asian genotype). Our analysis shows that the 2019 outbreak is the result of a novel DENV lineage that was recently introduced to Brazil from the Caribbean region. Dating phylogeographic analysis suggests that DENV2-III BR-4 was introduced to Brazil in or around early 2014, possibly from the Caribbean region.</p> <p><strong>MAIN CONCLUSIONS:</strong> Our study describes the early detection of a newly introduced and rapidly-expanding DENV2 virus lineage in Brazil.</p>
