New study shows that recent #measles outbreaks in #Burundi were driven by multiple virus introductions, highlighting the importance of disease surveillance to understand how the virus spreads.
Conducted by the @EDCTP3-funded GREAT-LIFE consortium.

Our team is buzzing with activity as we sequence more #mpox samples working around the clock to deepen our understanding of the virus’s dynamics. Science in action, driven by purpose and collaboration.🧬🔬 @MarionKoopmans @JuaKivu_viro @ndipac @1986Bom @EDCTP3

New paper out: we map how yellow fever surged through Horto Florestal Park in São Paulo city and uncover drivers of rapid transmission and spillover risk.

Another paper of our collaboration in DRC and Rwanda @EDCTP3: tracking the evolving mpox clade Ib outbreak. Great team, more work ongoing to try to understand the outbreak @Udahemuka1 @1986Bom and many others nature.com/articles/s41591-0…

The first preliminary analysis of the genomic surveillance performed after the introduction of mpox clade Ib in Burundi @MarionKoopmans and a lot of local collaborators who are not on C virological.org/t/preliminar…

This recently published real-time PCR assay can detect the novel subclade (clade 1b) and distinguish it from other clades

We later on released the molecular detection real-time PCR assay capable of differentiating this new subclade with other #Mpox clades/subclades. This will allow countries to detect cases

Earlier this year, we reported the genome of this new subclade, allowing the world to understand the changes in the virus and opening the floor to designing new detection assay. Our work was published in @Eurosurveillanc

Mpox was declared a public health emergency of international concern when clade II strains spread globally, and scaled back once that was going down. committee will have a renewed look, with widespread circulation in DRC, spread to neighbouring countries.
In light of the spread of #mpox outside #DRC, and the potential for further international spread within and outside Africa, I have decided to convene an Emergency Committee under the International Health Regulations to advise me on whether the outbreak represents a public health emergency of international concern.
The committee will meet as soon as possible and will be made up of independent experts from a range of relevant disciplines from around the world.

We present here the analysis of 58 full genome sequences of the new subclade in South Kivu from October 2023 to May 2024

Our sequence analysis of 58 MPXV clade Ib cases from Kamituga and Kamanyola, South-Kivu, DRC show that there is likely more widespread circulation outside the Kamituga region which is in line with detections in surrounding countries like Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya

Mpox (presumably clade 1b) now also diagnosed in Rwanda and Burundi indicating cross-border spread which is not unexpected
