The use of human sewage screening for community surveillance of hepatitis E virus in the UK

Hepatitis E virus sequences were detected by RT‐PCR in 14/15 (93%) of untreated sewage samples from Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. Phylogenetic analysis of amplicons at limiting dilution revealed the co‐circulation of multiple variants of HEV‐3, with a pattern of diversity matching that observed in a loca...

Phylogenetic analysis of amplicons at limiting dilution revealed the co‐circulation of multiple variants of HEV‐3, with a pattern of diversity matching that observed in a local cohort of HEV‐infected hepatitis patients.
