Assessment of the Utility of Whole Genome Sequencing of Measles Virus in the Characterisation of Outbreaks
BACKGROUND: Measles is a highly infectious disease caused by measles virus (MeV). Despite the availability of a safe and cost-effective vaccine, measles is one of the world-leading causes of death in young children. Within Europe, there is a target for eliminating endemic measles in 2015, with molec...
