International audience. Madagascar has faced three major outbreaks of vaccine-derived polioviruses (VDPVs) in recent decades, with VDPV type 1 reemerging in late 2020. Here, we report the molecular characterization of these cVDPV1 strains. WHO protocols were used for poliovirus detection in stool and wastewater samples. Molecular genotyping was based on the 5′ non-coding (5′NC), VP1, and 3Dpol regions. From 2020 to 2022, 92 of 5690 stool samples and 129 of 1046 wastewater samples tested positive for cVDPV1. Genetic analysis of the VP1 gene revealed 1.3%–6.1% variability compared to the Sabin strain. Most sequences showed mutations at neurovirulence attenuation sites. Phylogenetic analysis distributed strains into four genogroups originating from Southern Madagascar. All analyzed cVDPV1 strains were recombinant, containing mutated oral polio vaccine sequences in VP1 and type C enterovirus sequences in other regions. This study demonstrated that all strains were closely related during this epidemic.
