Abstract: |
We present a case of mpox recurrence in a transgender woman with AIDS. Her recurrent lesions required several courses of antiviral therapy over a 5-month period and her monkeypox viral genome was subsequently noted to have tecovirimat resistance mutations. Interestingly, she developed a robust orthopoxvirus-specific T-cell response. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
