Co-Circulation of 2 Oropouche Virus Lineages, Amazon Basin, Colombia, 2024.

ABSTRACT: In early 2024, explosive outbreaks of Oropouche virus (OROV) linked to a novel lineage were documented in the Amazon Region of Brazil. We report the introduction of this lineage into Colombia and its co-circulation with another OROV lineage. Continued surveillance is needed to prevent further spread of OROV in the Americas.
