Abstrakt: Mpox (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.
Competing Interests: Potential conflicts of interest. B. K. T. received consulting fees from the nonprofit CRITICA, unrelated to this work. All other authors report no potential conflicts.
