Paola CR, etc., al. Whole-Genome Characterization of a Novel Human Influenza A(H1N2) Virus Variant, Brazil. DOI: 10.3201/eid2301.161122
We report the characterization of a novel reassortant influenza A(H1N2) virus not previously reported in humans. Recovered from a a pig farm worker in southeast Brazil who had influenza-like illness, this virus is a triple reassortant containing gene segments from subtypes H1N2 (hemagglutinin), H3N2 (neuraminidase), and pandemic H1N1 (remaining genes).
