Abstract

Dengue virus (DENV) is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus belonging to the genus Flavivirus within the Flaviviridae family. Four serotypes, DENV 1-4, are distributed globally[1]. Hanoi metropolitan city is an endemic hotspot for DENV transmission in Vietnam[2,3]. The largest outbreak occurred in 2017, with more than 36 000 cases and 7 deaths reported, causing by all four serotypes with the predominance of DENV1, following by DENV2[4,5]. During the following dengue season, we collected 390 blood and serum samples from 197 hospitalized patients in a national hospital in Hanoi city, Northern Vietnam to identify the circulating DENV serotypes responsible for the 2018-2019 outbreak.
