- First case of SARS-COV-2 sequencing in cerebrospinal fluid of a patient with suspected demyelinating disease(2020) DOMINGUES, Renan Barros; MENDES-CORREA, Maria Cassia; LEITE, Fernando Brunale Vilela de Moura; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; SALARINI, Diego Zanotti; CLARO, Ingra; SANTOS, Daniel Wagner; JESUS, Jaqueline Goes de; FERREIRA, Noely Evangelista; ROMANO, Camila Malta; SOARES, Carlos Augusto SenneThe association between coronaviruses and central nervous system (CNS) demyelinating lesions has been previously shown. However, no case has been described of an association between the novel coronavirus (SARS-COV-2) and CNS demyelinating disease so far. SARS-COV-2 was previously detected in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample of a patient with encephalitis. However, the virus identity was not confirmed by deep sequencing of SARS-COV-2 detected in the CSF. Here, we report a case of a patient with mild respiratory symptoms and neurological manifestations compatible with clinically isolated syndrome. The viral genome of SARS-COV-2 was detected and sequenced in CSF with 99.74-100% similarity between the patient virus and worldwide sequences. This report suggests a possible association of SARS-COV-2 infection with neurological symptoms of demyelinating disease, even in the absence of relevant upper respiratory tract infection signs.
- Importation and early local transmission of COVID-19 in Brazil, 2020(2020) JESUS, Jaqueline Goes de; SACCHI, Claudio; CANDIDO, Darlan da Silva; CLARO, Ingra Morales; SALE, Flavia Cristina Silva; MANULI, Erika Regina; SILVA, Daniela Bernardes Borges da; PAIVA, Terezinha Maria de; PINHO, Margarete Aparecida Benega; SANTOS, Katia Correa de Oliveira; HILL, Sarah Catherine; AGUIAR, Renato Santana; ROMERO, Filipe; SANTOS, Fabiana Cristina Pereira dos; GONCALVES, Claudia Regina; TIMENETSKY, Maria do Carmo; QUICK, Joshua; CRODA, Julio Henrique Rosa; OLIVEIRA, Wanderson de; RAMBAUT, Andrew; PYBUS, Oliver G.; LOMAN, Nicholas J.; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; FARIA, Nuno RodriguesWe conducted the genome sequencing and analysis of the first confirmed COVID-19 infections in Brazil. Rapid sequencing coupled with phylogenetic analyses in the context of travel history corroborate multiple independent importations from Italy and local spread during the initial stage of COVID-19 transmission in Brazil.
- SARS-CoV-2 Detection and Culture in Different Biological Specimens from Immunocompetent and Immunosuppressed COVID-19 Patients Infected with Two Different Viral Strains(2023) MENDES-CORREA, Maria Cassia; SALOMAO, Matias Chiarastelli; GHILARDI, Fabio; TOZETTO-MENDOZA, Tania Regina; VILLAS-BOAS, Lucy Santos; PAULA, Anderson Vicente de; PAIAO, Heuder Gustavo Oliveira; COSTA, Antonio Charlys da; LEAL, Fabio E.; FERRAZ, Andrea de Barros Coscelli; SALES, Flavia C. S.; CLARO, Ingra M.; FERREIRA, Noely E.; PEREIRA, Geovana M.; JR, Almir Ribeiro da Silva; FREIRE, Wilton; ESPINOZA, Evelyn Patricia Sanchez; MANULI, Erika R.; ROMANO, Camila M.; JESUS, Jaqueline G. de; SABINO, Ester C.; WITKIN, Steven S.Introduction-The dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 shedding and replication in humans remain incompletely understood. Methods-We analyzed SARS-CoV-2 shedding from multiple sites in individuals with an acute COVID-19 infection by weekly sampling for five weeks in 98 immunocompetent and 25 immunosuppressed individuals. Samples and culture supernatants were tested via RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 to determine viral clearance rates and in vitro replication. Results-A total of 2447 clinical specimens were evaluated, including 557 nasopharyngeal swabs, 527 saliva samples, 464 urine specimens, 437 anal swabs and 462 blood samples. The SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences at each site were classified as belonging to the B.1.128 (ancestral strain) or Gamma lineage. SARS-CoV-2 detection was highest in nasopharyngeal swabs regardless of the virus strain involved or the immune status of infected individuals. The duration of viral shedding varied between clinical specimens and individual patients. Prolonged shedding of potentially infectious virus varied from 10 days up to 191 days, and primarily occurred in immunosuppressed individuals. Virus was isolated in culture from 18 nasal swab or saliva samples collected 10 or more days after onset of disease. Conclusions-Our findings indicate that persistent SARS-CoV-2 shedding may occur in both competent or immunosuppressed individuals, at multiple clinical sites and in a minority of subjects is capable of in vitro replication.
- SARS-CoV-2 reinfection caused by the P.1 lineage in Araraquara city, Sao Paulo State, Brazil(2021) ROMANO, Camila Malta; FELIX, Alvina Clara; PAULA, Anderson Vicente de; JESUS, Jaqueline Goes de; ANDRADE, Pamela S.; CANDIDO, Darlan; OLIVEIRA, Franciane M. de; RIBEIRO, Andreia C.; SILVA, Francini C. da; INEMAMI, Marta; COSTA, Angela Aparecida; LEAL, Cibele O. D.; FIGUEIREDO, Walter Manso; PANNUTI, Claudio Sergio; SOUZA, William M. de; FARIA, Nuno Rodrigues; SABINO, Ester CerdeiraReinfection by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-COV-2) has been reported in many countries, suggesting that the virus may continue to circulate among humans despite the possibility of local herd immunity due to massive previous infections. The emergence of variants of concern (VOC) that are more transmissible than the previous circulating ones has raised particular concerns on the vaccines effectiveness and reinfection rates. The P.1 lineage was first identified in December 2020 in Manaus city and is now globally spread. We report the first case of reinfection of SARS-CoV-2 caused by the P.1 variant outside of Manaus. The potential of these new variants to escape naturally and vaccine-induced immunity highlights the need for a global vigilance.
- Molecular characterization and sequecing analysis of SARS-CoV-2 genome in Minas Gerais, Brazil(2022) FERREIRA, Giulia Magalhaes; CLARO, Ingra Morales; GROSCHE, Victoria Riquena; CANDIDO, Darlan; JOSE, Diego Pandelo; ROCHA, Esmenia Coelho; COLETTI, Thais de Moura; MANULI, Erika Regina; JR, Nelson Gaburo; FARIA, Nuno Rodrigues; SABINO, Ester Cerdeira; JESUS, Jaqueline Goes de; JARDIM, Ana Carolina GomesThe severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), first identified in Wuhan, China, is the causative agent of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Since its first notification in Sa similar to o Paulo state (SP) on 26th February 2020, more than 22,300,000 cases and 619,000 deaths were reported in Brazil. In early pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 spread locally, however, over time, this virus was disseminated to other regions of the country. Herein, we performed genomic sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of SARS-CoV-2 using 20 clinical samples of COVID-19 confirmed cases from 9 cities of Minas Gerais state (MG), in order to evaluate the molecular properties of circulating viral strains in this locality from March to May 2020. Our analyses demonstrated the circulation of B.1 lineage isolates in the investigated locations and nucleotide substitutions were observed into the genomic regions related to important viral structures. Additionally, sequences generated in this study clustered with isolates from SP, suggesting a dissemination route between these two states. Alternatively, monophyletic groups of sequences from MG and other states or country were observed, indicating independent events of virus introduction. These results reinforce the need of genomic surveillance for understand the ongoing spread of emerging viral pathogens.
- Y Interacting Epidemics in Amazonian Brazil: Prior Dengue Infection Associated With Increased Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Risk in a Population-Based Cohort Study(2021) NICOLETE, Vanessa C.; RODRIGUES, Priscila T.; JOHANSEN, Igor C.; CORDER, Rodrigo M.; TONINI, Juliana; CARDOSO, Marly A.; JESUS, Jaqueline G. de; CLARO, Ingra M.; FARIA, Nuno R.; SABINO, Ester C.; CASTRO, Marcia C.; FERREIRA, Marcelo U.Background. Immunity after dengue virus (DENV) infection has been suggested to cross-protect from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and mortality. Methods. We tested whether serologically proven prior DENV infection diagnosed in September-October 2019, before the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, reduced the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and clinically apparent COVID-19 over the next 13 months in a population-based cohort in Amazonian Brazil. Mixed-effects multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictors of infection and disease, adjusting for potential individual and household-level confounders. Virus genomes from 14 local SARS-CoV-2 isolates were obtained using whole-genome sequencing. Results. Anti-DENV immunoglobulin G (IgG) was found in 37.0% of 1285 cohort participants (95% confidence interval [CI]: 34.3% to 39.7%) in 2019, with 10.4 (95% CI: 6.7-15.5) seroconversion events per 100 person-years during the follow-up. In 2020, 35.2% of the participants (95% CI: 32.6% to 37.8%) had anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG and 57.1% of the 448 SARS-CoV-2 seropositives (95% CI: 52.4% to 61.8%) reported clinical manifestations at the time of infection. Participants aged >60 years were twice more likely to have symptomatic COVID-19 than children under 5 years. Locally circulating SARS-CoV-2 isolates were assigned to the B.1.1.33 lineage. Contrary to the cross-protection hypothesis, prior DENV infection was associated with twice the risk of clinically apparent COVID-19 upon SARS-CoV-2 infection, with P values between .025 and .039 after adjustment for identified confounders. Conclusions. Higher risk of clinically apparent COVID-19 among individuals with prior dengue has important public health implications for communities sequentially exposed to DENV and SARS-CoV-2 epidemics.
