Mepox new not another covid epidemic: World Health Organization
A WHO official said this in the context of concern about the spread of another epidemic as monkeypox or Mpox is spreading across the world beyond the borders of Africa.
A World Health Organization (WHO) official has assured that there is no risk of new outbreaks of empox like another Covid pandemic, be it a new or an old strain of empox. Because the authorities know how to control this disease.
Hans Kluge, WHO regional director for Europe, told the media and a press briefing at the United Nations on Tuesday. "We can and must tackle monkeypox together," he said.
“So shall we choose to put in place measures to control and eliminate monkeypox worldwide? Or enter another cycle of fear and neglect? How we respond to this now and in the years to come is an important test for Europe and the world at large."
Monkeypox or MPOX has been limited to African countries, but now it has spread beyond the borders to several other countries in Europe and Asia. The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared a public health emergency around the world due to concern over the spread of empox.
In this situation, the question has come to the fore that before the end of the Covid epidemic, another similar empox epidemic will spread around the world? However, the chances of that happening are less than that, according to WHO official Kluge.
Monkeypox is similar to lost smallpox, but is relatively less severe and the infection is not as widespread. The primary symptoms of this disease are fever, headache, joint and muscle pain and body fatigue.
The two types of this disease are clade 1b and clade 2. Both of these types are spreading globally and are causing concern. According to Klug, Europe is now reporting about 100 new cases of Clade 2 mpox every month.
Mepox is spread by close contact, also through sexual intercourse. However, there is no evidence that empox spreads in the same way that covid spreads easily through the air.
As a result, health authorities need to be on the lookout for highly contagious new strains of empox. But there are no guidelines for people to wear masks, said WHO spokesman Tarik Jasarevic
