  1. Specimens A to H refer to the sequential collection of different stool samples from the immunodeficient patient. Type 3 poliovirus (PV3) was isolated from the first stool specimens (A1, A2) collected in Albania in June 2014, and from four stool samples collected in Italy until September 2014 (B1, B2, C1 and C2)
