The global spread of hepatitis C virus 1a and 1b: a phylodynamic and phylogeographic analysis
Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is estimated to affect 130-180 million people worldwide. Although its origin is unknown, patterns of viral diversity suggest that HCV genotype 1 probably originated from West Africa. Previous attempts to estimate the spatiotemporal parameters of the virus, both gl...
