Mpox Disease/ by Keanne Andrei Mendoza

[edit]

(EM-pox, formally known as monkey pox) is a volatile and deadly disease that originated and infected humans in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and was spread to central parts of Africa.

[edit]

It was first discovered in 1958 by a group of monkeys that were stationed for research in Denmark.

[edit]

The disease can be fatal in some cases, but its less serious offspring, "Clade-II," is a less deadly version of "Clade-I," which is the more likely version of the mpox that can kill a person.

[edit]

The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced that the monkey pox virus is now a public health emergency in all of the countries worldwide.

[edit]

Monkey Pox can be spread by going into close/direct contact with an infected animal or human. The person may feel fine, but the virus's symptoms can strike between 3 and 17 days upon contact. In that amount of days, the patient must be contained to prevent further escalation in infected people.

[edit]
At this moment, no known remedies or vaccines can eradicate this disease yet, but researchers and scientists around the globe are searching for a cure. All information has not been proven accurate due to monkey pox is at its early stages of research and scientists are still investigating.
