Monkeypox Overview: What is it? How Does it Spread?
Monkeypox is a zoonotic disease (disease spread from animals to humans). There are four species of pox viruses: smallpox, monkey pox, cowpox, and vaccinia. These four viruses are transmitted from one host to another through direct contact with infected animals or insects.
Monkeypox is an infectious disease caused by the monkey pox virus. Its symptoms are similar to human smallpox, but generally less serious. It was first noticed in Central and West Africa. The disease gets its name from the fact that it was first discovered in laboratory monkeys. Monkeypox begins with a fever, headache, muscles pain and swollen lymph nodes. A few days later a rash develops starting on the mouth and spreading to other parts of the human body. The rash forms blisters that eventually turn into scabs. Monkey pox is usually not fatal in humans, but can be deadly in some cases particularly in young children and people with weak immune systems. At present unfortunately there is no available treatment for monkey pox, but symptoms can be treated with supportive care.
