This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.
The hepatitis E virus (HEV) causes major outbreaks in sub-Saharan Africa. Here, we present four genome sequences of HEV-1e from the 2018 outbreak in the Central African Republic. Despite high identity with known African isolates, these sequences constitute a new cluster and suggest local transmission and diversification.
