摘要

To evaluate genetic changes in respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) between 2019 and 2023, we analyzed RSV strains from Myanmar before and after the COVID- 19 pandemic. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) positive samples from children presenting with acute respiratory infections at outpatient clinics in Yangon were sequenced to determine the genotype. Phylogenetic and molecular evolutionary analyses were conducted using the Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo method to construct the time-scale Maximum Clade Credibility tree. Of 1127 samples, 104 (9.2%) RSV-A and 233 (20.7%) RSV-B were positive by RT-PCR. There was an absence of a notable epidemic in 2020, a temporal shift with a surge of RSV-A in the 2021 outbreak, a lack of expected cases in 2022 and a substantial resurgence of RSV-B in 2023. The genotype of RSV-A was mainly A.D.3 lineage through the study period, while RSV-B were B.D.4.1.1 and B.D.E.1. RSV-A showed that the same lineage persisted within Myanmar throughout the pandemic, leading to a large outbreak post-COVID. In contrast, RSV-B strains appear to have temporarily disappeared during the pandemic, but subsequently, globally circulating strains likely entered Myanmar, resulting in a major outbreak in 2023. The estimated evolutionary rate at the G-ectodomain for RSV-A was 7.76 × 10⁻³ and RSV-B was 5.67 × 10⁻³ substitutions/site/year. Strengthening genomic surveillance will likely support comparisons of circulating strains with those in other countries and facilitate the introduction of vaccines and other interventions.
