AI Article Synopsis
- - A study analyzed 34 monkeypox virus genomes from patients in Minas Gerais, Brazil, which showed that the virus was initially imported in early June 2022.
- - After the importation, the virus began spreading within the community in the state.
- - All analyzed genomes were part of the B.1 lineage linked to a global outbreak of mpox, providing crucial information for public health responses.
Article Abstract
Phylogenetic analysis of 34 monkeypox virus genome sequences isolated from patients in Minas Gerais, Brazil, revealed initial importation events in early June 2022, then community transmission within the state. All generated genomes belonged to the B.1 lineage responsible for a global mpox outbreak. These findings can inform public health measures.
