    COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Two patients in Norway has been diagnosed with the mpox virus of the clade 2 variety, the Oslo municipality said on Tuesday.

    Clade 2 is a less severe form of mpox than the clade 1b strain that has recently caused global concerns.

    Authorities are currently investigating whether there is a connection between the two cases, the municipality said in a statement.
