Genomic analyses of recently emerging clades of mpox virus reveal gene deletion and single nucleotide polymorphisms that correlate with altered virulence and transmission
2024-09-25
Abstract excerpt
Mpox virus (MPXV) has consistently caused human infections since the first reported case in 1970, with the initial outbreaks primarily attributed to sporadic zoonotic transmissions. In recent years, an increase in human-to-human transmission has been observed, particularly during the 2022 outbreak caused by Clade IIb, which was declared a public health emergency by WHO.
