To investigate animal reservoirs of monkeypox virus in Nigeria, we sampled 240 rodents during 2018-2019. Molecular (real-time PCR) and serologic (IgM) evidence indicated orthopoxvirus infections, but presence of monkeypox virus was not confirmed. These results can be used to develop public health interventions to reduce human infection with orthopoxviruses.
为了调查尼日利亚的猴痘病毒动物宿主，我们在 2018-2019 年期间采集了 240 只啮齿动物样本。分子（实时 PCR）和血清学（IgM）证据表明存在正痘病毒感染，但未确认猴痘病毒的存在。这些结果可用于制定公共卫生干预措施，以减少人类感染正痘病毒。
