Article Synopsis
- Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) is a group of harmful bacteria causing severe diarrhea in kids in developing countries, especially Vietnam, with limited understanding of their characteristics.
- In a study of 61 isolates from infants, researchers identified 57 different strains of DEC, with the majority being enteroaggregative E. coli (54.1%) and enteropathogenic E. coli (32.8%), along with some strains of Escherichia albertii.
- Many of these DEC strains showed genetic traits linked to antibiotic resistance, posing treatment challenges, as up to 65.6% were resistant to ciprofloxacin and 41% to ceftriaxone, indicating the need for ongoing research and
We analyzed 2 clusters of 12 patients in Vietnam with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection during January-February 2020. Analysis indicated virus transmission from a traveler from China. One asymptomatic patient demonstrated virus shedding, indicating potential virus transmission in the absence of clinical signs and symptoms.

A rapid increase and dominance of G9P[8] Rotavirus A strains occurred in northern Vietnam between 2016 and 2018, during which period there appeared three G9P[8] strains possessing short RNA patterns. To understand how the first-ever G9P[8] strains possessing short RNA patterns were formed, next generation sequencing technology was used to examine the whole genomes of the three strains, i.e.
