May indicate persistent shedding risk in immunodeficient hosts; leaves open full reversion potential and surveillance needs.
In an immunodeficient patient, the Sabin 3 poliovirus evolved at a rate similar to wild-type transmission over 637 days without full reversion of attenuated phenotypes, providing insight into the risks of long-term viral excretion.
Martín et al. (2000) studied this question.
