Objectives: Hepatitis A (HAV) virus causes asymptomatic to life-treating fulminant hepatitis. During infection, patients show large viral excretion in their stools. Resistance of HAV to environmental conditions, allows us to recover viral nucleotide sequences from wastewater and trace its evolutionary history. Methods: We characterize twelve years of HAV circulation in wastewater from Santiago, Chile, and conducted phylogenetic analyses to decipher the dynamics of circulating lineages. Results: We observed the exclusive circulation of the HAV IA genotype. The molecular epidemiologic analyses showed a steady circulation of a dominant lineage with low genetic diversity (d = 0,007) between 2010 and 2017. An outbreak of Hepatitis A associated with men who have sex with men, in 2017 was associated with the irruption of a new lineage. Remarkably, a dramatic change in the dynamic of HAV circulation was observed in the period post-outbreak; between 2017 and 2021 when 4 different lineages were transiently detected. Exhaustive phylogenetic analyses indicate that these lineages were introduced and possibly derived from isolates from other Latin American countries. Conclusion: The HAV circulation in recent years in Chile is rapidly changing and suggests that this phenomenon could be a consequence of massive population migrations in Latin America caused by political instability and natural disasters.
