In Congo, a Medical Mystery Offers Clues to the Mpox Epidemic
In a remote Congolese town, a medical mystery led to the discovery of alarming changes in the mpox virus and, eventually, to a global health emergency.
Incredible reporting as always by @stephanienolen.bsky.social in the NYT on the emergence of Clade Ib #mpox in Kamituga, DRC. It is a must read (not paywalled) article. Gives important insight into the context of the outbreak and real life challenges to the response.
