Clade I–Associated Mpox Cases Associated with Sexual Contact, the Democratic Republic of the Congo

8 Dec 2023

Abstract excerpt

We report a cluster of clade I monkeypox virus infections linked to sexual contact in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Case investigations resulted in 5 reverse transcription PCR-confirmed infections; genome sequencing suggest they belonged to the same transmission chain. This finding demonstrates that mpox transmission through sexual contact extends beyond clade IIb.
