What is the monkeypox virus? A microbiologist explains whatโs known about this smallpox cousin
On May 18, 2022, Massachusetts welfare authorities and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed a single case of monkeypox recently in a patient in Canada. In addition, cases were counted in the UK and Europe.

Monkeypox is just another disease. The main confirmed human case was in 1970, when infection was separated from a child associated with smallpox in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It's possible that monkeypox won't cause another pandemic, but with the novel coronavirus COVID-19 in a mental state, the fear of another major outbreak is justified. Although naturally intriguing and cute, monkeypox can cause severe illness anyway. Welfare authorities are concerned that more cases will emerge as travel expands.
I am a scientist who has worked in the field of public health and clinical laboratories for more than thirty years, particularly in the field of disease starting with creatures. What exactly happens in a persistent flare-up, and what does history tell us about monkeypox?
