In early 2024, explosive outbreaks of Oropouche virus (OROV) linked to a novel viral lineage were documented in the Brazilian Amazon. Here, we report the introduction of this emerging orthobunyavirus into Colombia and its co-circulation with another OROV lineage. This investigation highlights the complex arbovirus dynamics in South America.
