More than 300 suspected and confirmed cases of monkeypox, a usually mild illness that spreads through close contact and can cause flu-like symptoms and pus-filled skin lesion, have been reported in May, mostly in Europe.
Asked whether this monkeypox outbreak has the potential to grow into a pandemic, Rosamund Lewis, technical lead for monkeypox from the WHO Health Emergencies Programme said: “We don’t know but we don’t think so.”Once monkeypox has been contracted, the duration of the rash emerging and scabs falling off is recognised as the infectious period, but there is limited information on whether there is any spread of the virus by people who are not symptomatic, she added.
The strain of virus implicated in the outbreak is understood to kill a small fraction of those infected, but no deaths have been reported so far.
OrganiZation. WHO
