We used pathogen genomics to test orangutan specimens from a museum in Bonn, Germany, to identify the origin of the animals and the circumstances of their death. We found monkeypox virus genomes in the samples and determined that they represent cases from a 1965 outbreak at Rotterdam Zoo in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.
我们利用病原体基因组学对德国波恩博物馆的猩猩标本进行检测,以确定动物的来源和死亡情况。我们在样本中发现了猴痘病毒基因组,并确定它们代表了 1965 年荷兰鹿特丹动物园暴发疫情中的病例。
