Genomic epidemiology reveals 2022 mpox epidemic in New York City governed by heavy-tailed sexual contact networks

2024-08-01

Abstract excerpt

The global mpox epidemic in 2022 was likely caused by transmission of mpox virus (MPXV) through sexual contact networks, with New York City (NYC) experiencing the first and largest outbreak in the United States.
