Jude Kong 📄 Latest preprint! From COVID-19 → Mpox → Ebola: building reusable, African-led AI infrastructure for epidemic response and toward continental zoonotic disease intelligence. Grateful to @IDRC_CRDI for the support! Link: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.... A great read for the weekend
Antonia Ho 🚨 New paper! Working with colleagues from @cvrinfo.bsky.social, @ukhsa.bsky.social, @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social & ISARIC4C study, we investigated the emergence of tecovirimat resistance during severe mpox infection in a patient with advanced HIV. 🦠 💊 🧬 👉 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Decoding Infection and Transmission #Mpox is evolving beyond its traditional profile, increasing the risk of missed diagnoses.

PLOS Global Public Health Mpox is evolving: once rare & largely animal-borne, it’s now spreading globally w/ new transmission patterns. Modeling shows how outbreaks can jump beyond core networks & how targeted vaccines & rapid tracing could curb spread. Prevention & surveillance remain key. journals.plos.org/globalpublic...
