Abstract: | Summary Ten mumps virus isolates recovered during an epidemic in Switzerland between Autumn 1992 and Spring 1993 were compared by nucleotide sequence analysis of the SH gene. The isolates were found to belong to two distinct yet closely related wild type strains in a newly identified European mumps virus lineage. |
