AI Article Synopsis
- - Mpox was identified in two women who traveled back to Vietnam from the UAE.
- - The strain of monkeypox identified belongs to a new sublineage, A.2.1, which is different from the currently dominant B.1 strain causing the outbreak in multiple countries.
- - There's a need for improved genomic monitoring to better understand how the virus is evolving and to assess the role of women in the transmission of mpox.
Article Abstract
Mpox was diagnosed in 2 women returning to Vietnam from the United Arab Emirates. The monkeypox viruses belonged to an emerging sublineage, A.2.1, distinct from B.1, which is responsible for the ongoing multicountry outbreak. Women could contribute to mpox transmission, and enhanced genomic surveillance is needed to clarify pathogen evolution.
