Fatal monkeypox in wild-living sooty mangabey, Côte d'Ivoire, 2012

Emerging Infectious Diseases, Volume 20, No. 6, Year 2014

We isolated a monkeypox virus from a wild-living monkey, a sooty mangabey, found dead in Taï National Park, Côte d'Ivoire, in March 2012. The whole-genome sequence obtained from this isolate and directly from clinical specimens showed its close relationship to monkeypox viruses from Western Africa.
