Abstract

AbstractMpox (monkeypox) represents a diagnostic challenge due to varied clinical presentations and multiple mimics. A commercially available multiplex polymerase chain reaction panel accurately detects mpox virus as well as common mimics (herpes simplex virus, varicella zoster virus) in clinical specimens and could be used in routine clinical, surveillance, and outbreak settings.
