Early Release - Genomic Characterization of Circulating Dengue Virus, Ethiopia, 2022–2023 - Volume 31, Number 3—March 2025 - Emerging Infectious Diseases journal - CDC
Abstract
In Ethiopia, dengue virus (DENV) infections have been reported in several regions; however, little is known about the genetic diversity of circulating viruses. We conducted clinical surveillance of DENV during the 2023 nationwide outbreak in Ethiopia. We enrolled patients at 3 sentinel hospital sites. Using reverse transcription PCR, we screened serum samples for 3 arboviruses and then serotyped and whole-genome sequenced DENV-positive samples. …
