Genomic characterization uncovers transmission dynamics of Marburg Virus in Rwanda following a single zoonotic spillover event
2024-11-05
Abstract excerpt
The ongoing outbreak of Marburg virus disease (MVD) in Rwanda marks the third largest historically, though it has exhibited the lowest fatality rate. Genomic analysis has identified a lineage with limited internal diversity most closely related to a genome sequence from a sporadic case sampled in 2014 in Uganda, though the lineages have diverged from a common ancestor that was circulating for decades in the animal...
