Complete Genome Sequences of Two Human Adenovirus Type 55 Isolates from South Korea and the United States

Abstract

Here, we report two complete genome sequences of human adenovirus 55 (HAdV-55) isolates, from a patient in Pennsylvania in 2006 and a U.S. military member in South Korea in 2019. The findings demonstrate the continued global transmission of HAdV-55 viruses in both military and civilian populations.
