Norovirus Genotypes in Hospital Settings - Differences between Nosocomial and Community-Acquired Infections.
(2015) In Journal of Infectious Diseases 212(6). p.881-888- Abstract
- Norovirus is a major cause of gastroenteritis and hospital outbreaks, leading to substantial morbidity and direct healthcare expenses as well as indirect societal costs. The aim of the study was to estimate the proportion of nosocomial norovirus infections among inpatients tested positive for norovirus in Denmark, 2002-2010, and to study the distribution of norovirus genotypes among inpatients with nosocomial and community-acquired norovirus infections, respectively.
