  • Molecular and Epidemiologic Characterization of the Diphtheria Outbreak in Venezuela Ricardo A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Molecular and epidemiologic characterization of the diphtheria outbreak in Venezuela Ricardo A. Strauss1*, Laura Herrera‑Leon2, Ana C. Guillén4, Julio S. Castro3, Eva Lorenz1, Ana Carvajal5, Elizabeth Hernandez5, Trina Navas11, Silvana Vielma8, Neiris Lopez12, Maria G. Lopez10, Lisbeth Aurenty10, Valeria Navas9, Maria A. Rosas6, Tatiana Drummond5, José G. Martínez5, Erick Hernández8, Francis Bertuglia7, Omaira Andrade7, Jaime Torres3, Jürgen May1, Silvia Herrera‑Leon2 & Daniel Eibach1 In 2016, Venezuela faced a large diphtheria outbreak that extended until 2019. Nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal samples were prospectively collected from 51 suspected cases and retrospective data from 348 clinical records was retrieved from 14 hospitals between November 2017 and November 2018. Confrmed pathogenic Corynebactrium isolates were biotyped. Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) was performed followed by next‑generation‑based core genome‑MLST and minimum spanning trees were generated. Subjects between 10 and 19 years of age were mostly afected (n = 95; 27.3%). Case fatality rates (CFR) were higher in males (19.4%), as compared to females (15.8%). The highest CFR (31.1%) was observed among those under 5, followed by the 40 to 49 age‑group (25.0%). Nine samples corresponded to C. diphtheriae and 1 to C. ulcerans. Two Sequencing Types (ST), ST174 and ST697 (the latter not previously described) were identifed among the eight C. diphtheriae isolates from Carabobo state. Cg‑MLST revealed only one cluster also from Carabobo. The Whole Genome Sequencing analysis revealed that the outbreak seemed to be caused by diferent strains with C. diphtheriae and C. ulcerans coexisting. The reemergence and length of this outbreak suggest vaccination coverage problems and an inadequate control strategy.

  • Irregularities in the Venezuelan Elections During
    Electoral Irregularities A Typology Based on Venezuela under Chavismo Draft February 6, 2018 Javier Corrales1 Department of Political Science Amherst College [email protected] This is a draft document. Please help improve this document by reporting any errors and omissions to [email protected]. 1 I am grateful to Alejandro Sucre, Federico Sucre, and Franz von Bergen for their research assistance. 1 Electoral Irregularities: A Typology based on Venezuela under Chavismo Venezuela’s Chavista period (1999-present) has often been praised for its frequent electoral activity. But it has also been characterized by two, less praiseworthy features: irregularities and biased electoral reforms. These features have worsened over time. To date, the total number of irregularities is 117. From the very beginning, almost every electoral process has featured at least one major irregularity or system biases in favor of the incumbent party. These irregularities consist of practices, rules, and even laws that depart from either the spirit or the letter of the Constitution or from international standards for conducting “free and fair” elections. This paper provides a typology of electoral irregularities in Venezuela in the Chavista era, 1999-present. The full list appears in the Appendix. Irregularities are classified according to three characteristics: timing, type, and effect. Regarding timing, the evidence shows that electoral irregularities occurred since the start of the Chavista era (referendum on whether to conduct a constituent assembly, 1999) and expanded over overtime during the entire Hugo Chávez administration (1999-2013). They have become ubiquitous now under Nicolás Maduro (2013- present). Regarding type, each irregularity is classified according to the following categories: 1.
