Abstract | In the early 2015, several cases of patients presenting symptoms of mild fever, rash, conjunctivitis and arthralgia
were reported in the northeastern Brazil. Although all patients lived in a dengue endemic area, molecular and
serological diagnosis for dengue resulted negative. Chikungunya virus infection was also discarded. Subsequently,
Zika virus (ZIKV) was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction from the sera of eight patients
and the result was confirmed by DNA sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that the ZIKV identified belongs
to the Asian clade. This is the first report of ZIKV infection in Brazil. | pt_BR |
