*Microsatellite genotypes of all 11 isolates from Requena and 1 of 12 isolates from Yurimaguas were identical to those of the Tumbes outbreak. Only 17 of 54 isolates processed are shown. Isolates were selected to cover the extent of the duration of the outbreak (October 2010–March 2012). ND, not determined.
†Historical microsatellite alleles of clonets A–E found in Peru in 1999–2000 and the BV1 variant found in Loreto in 2009–2010. C, Central Amazon; E, eastern Amazon; W, western Amazon.
