Description

Feleke Mekonnen and a large team report a 2024 journal article on dengue virus serotype 3 entering Ethiopia's Afar Region. Genetic analysis of virus samples from the 2023 circulation found three distinct introductions into the region. The introductions clustered in place and time and linked to genomes from Asia and Italy. The authors argue the findings should sharpen prevention and control, and they press for lasting tools for genomic tracking of outbreaks in Africa.
