Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: We determined the coding-complete genome sequence of a measles virus that was isolated in Rabat from a Moroccan patient on 23 March 2024. Phylogenetic analysis showed that this virus, named MVi/Rabat.MAR/29.24, belongs to lineage B3 and is closely related to a USA isolate.
