Abstract
Mpox virus from Clade I exhibits high virulence and poses significant mortality risks, especially among children. We isolated a strain of the mpox virus (hMpxV/Uganda/MUWRP-H1922SL/2025) from an adult woman in Uganda. Using phylogenetic tree analysis and PoxServer evaluation, we determined that this strain belongs to Clade/Lineage Ib. PubMed
