Abstrakt: Abstract: The recent detection of hepatitis C virus genotype 4 infection in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients prompted performing molecular characterization of these isolates. All the Mexican isolates belonged to a subcluster within the 4d group and shared a common ancestor with a French isolate. The estimated timing of introduction in Mexico City was as recent as December 2015.
