Emergence of mpox in Guinea: sporadic clade IIa cases and a clade IIb upsurge

2026-03-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Mpox virus (MPXV) has caused recurrent outbreaks in West Africa. However, Guinea had not previously reported laboratory-confirmed cases or MPXV genomic data. <h4>Methods</h4> Suspected cases were identified in the N’Zérékoré region as well as in the Conakry (Sept 2024– Dec 2025) and confirmed by real-time PCR in regional and central laboratories, respectively. Whole-genome sequencing using na...
