Co-Circulation of 2 Oropouche Virus Lineages during Outbreak, Amazon Region of Peru, 2023–2024
We describe introduction of the 2022-2023 Oropouche virus lineage from Brazil, which has caused large-scale outbreaks throughout Brazil, into the Amazon Region of Peru. This lineage is co-circulating with another lineage that was circulating previously. Our findings highlight the need for continued surveillance to monitor Oropouche virus in Peru.
