Monkeypox Virus Clade IIa Infections, Liberia, 2023-2024
Abstract
We performed monkeypox virus genome sequencing on clinical samples from Liberia, yielding 5 clade IIa genomes. Our analysis found no evidence of sustained human-to-human transmission, suggesting independent zoonotic spillovers from a diverse viral lineage. Public health officials should continue monitoring and sequencing efforts to identify emerging monkeypox virus lineages.
