To explore the potential transmission between recent infection and long-standing infection in the networks, 517 (out of 681, 75.9 ) recent infections (<1 year) were identified using a molecular algorithm (See Methods), of which 417 (80.7 ) were interlinked among recent infections, and 162 (31.3 ) were linked to the long-standing infections (>1 year). Of the 164 long-standing infection, 71 (43.3 ) were interlinked among long-standing infections, and 117 (71.3 ) were linked to recent infections. To better understand the role that the migrants (living in Shanghai for more than half a year) played in the formation of networks, we investigated the influence of their domicile on transmission. We found the transmission linkage existed not only in the individuals with different domiciles and diagnosed in Shanghai (intra-province), but also in the individuals with same domiciles (townsmen) but diagnosed in the domicile places and Shanghai (inter-province). Seventy-one PD173074 site networks including 180 individuals diagnosed in Shanghai (dots in different colors based on domicile) and those who were diagnosed in their hometowns (squares in different colors based on domicile) are shown in Fig. 4A and Supplementary material 6. In addition, 5 networks including 11 individuals diagnosed in Shanghai were linked with 6 Thai individuals (Supplementary material 7). Overall, 40.0 (461/1, 152) of persons had 1 link, and 19.1 (220/1, 152) of persons had 2 links in our network analysis. Chi-square test (Table 1) showed that, sampling year after 2011 (P < 0.001) and recent infection (P = 0.022) were factors associated with potential transmission links among networks.
