• Description:
  Acute gastroenteritis associated with human norovirus infection was reported in Phuket, Thailand, in June 2023. We amplified GII.8P8 from the outbreak stool specimens. Retrospective sample analysis identified infrequent GII.8P8 in the country beginning in 2018. In all, the 10 whole-genome GII.8P8 sequences from Thailand we examined had no evidence of genotypic recombination.
