Epidemiology and Genetic Diversity of Human Metapneumovirus in Patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Infection from 2023 to 2024 in Ningxia, China
In this study, we found that the 111nt-dup strain was the dominant one in genotype A, and multiple genotypes co-circulated in Ningxia from October 2023 to September 2024. The HMPV G protein exhibited the highest level of inter-strain diversity between genotypes. These findings provide valuable insights into the prevention and control of HMPV infections in China.
