A European perspective of phylogenomics, sublineages, geographical distribution, epidemiology, and mutational landscape of mpox virus: Emergence pattern may help to fight the next public health emergency in Europe.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The 2022 outbreak of the mpox virus (previously monkeypox virus, MPXV) in non-epidemic regions has created a global issue. The emergence of MPXV was first reported in Europe, which was described as the MPXV epicenter, however, no reports are available to illustrate its outbreak patterns in Europe.

Methods

The study used numerous in silico and statistical methods to analyze hMPXV1 in European countries. Here, we used different bioinformatics servers and software to evaluate the spread of hMPXV1 in European countries. For analysis, we use various advanced servers like Nextstrain, Taxonium, MpoxSpectrum, etc. Similarly, for the statistical model, we used PAST software.

Results

The phylogenetic tree was depicted to illustrate the origin and evolution of hMPXV1
