Targeted Metagenomics Reveals Hidden Chickenpox Epidemic Amid Mpox Surveillance in Uganda

2025-12-09

Abstract excerpt

In regions where both Mpox virus (MPXV) and varicella zoster virus (VZV) are co-circulating, overlapping clinical manifestations can complicate clinical diagnosis. During the MPXV outbreak declared in Uganda on July, 2024, symptomatic suspected cases tested PCR negative for Mpox. To determine the cause of symptoms, we employed metagenomic sequencing with a targeted Viral Surveillance panel in 284 Mpox negative sam...
