In 1998, a large number of YF cases occurred in northern Brazil, especially in Para. In 1999 through 2000, a few cases were reported in Bahia and Tocantins, but the largest number were in central Goias (19).

Four isolates collected during the 1972-1973 Goias outbreak were included in this study; these isolates (group 1A, Brazil73a-d) had nearly identical (99.6%) NS5/3'NCR sequences, and a filth isolate with a highly similar sequence was obtained 10 years later from Faro, in northern Para. Other than the single Faro isolate (Brazil84e), no additional descendents have been identified of those outbreak strains.
