What is monkeypox? How did it spread?

According to the disease control department, monkeypox is a zoonosis caused by Monkeypox virus. In the past, monkeypox was mainly prevalent in Central and West Africa. At present, monkeypox cases have been found in 111 countries and regions around the world, and interpersonal transmission is dominated by Gay sexual practices. The World Health Organization announced on May 11, 2023 that the monkeypox epidemic no longer constitutes a "public health emergency of international concern".

At present, the risk of monkeypox infection to the public is low. It is recommended to actively learn about monkeypox prevention knowledge and take good health protection measures.

1. The source and mode of transmission of monkeypox:

African rodents, primates (many monkeys and apes) and humans infected with Monkeypox virus are the main sources of infection. People can be infected by contacting respiratory secretions, pathological Exudate, blood, other body fluids of infected animals, or by being bitten or scratched by infected animals. Human to human transmission is mainly through close contact, and can also be transmitted through droplets in long-term Close encounter, and can also be transmitted from pregnant women to fetuses through the placenta.

2. The incubation period and clinical manifestations of monkeypox:

The incubation period of monkeypox is usually 6-13 days, with a maximum of 21 days. The infected person will have fever, headache, Lymphadenopathy and other symptoms. Subsequently, a rash appears on the face and other parts of the body, gradually developing into pustules that last for about a week, and then scabs form. Once all scabs fall off, the infected person is no longer infectious.

3. Treatment methods for monkeypox:Monkeypox is a self-limiting disease with a good prognosis in most cases. At present, there is no specific anti Monkeypox virus drug in China. The treatment mainly includes symptomatic supportive treatment and complication treatment. In most cases, monkeypox symptoms disappear on their own within 2-4 weeks.

4. Prevention of monkeypox:One is to avoid close contact with people who suffer from monkeypox. Sexual contact, especially with men, carries a higher risk. The second is to avoid direct contact with wildlife in high-risk countries. Avoid capturing, slaughtering, or eating local animals raw. The third is good hygiene habits. Regularly clean and disinfect, and maintain good hand hygiene.

5. Conduct health monitoring:If there is a history of contact with suspicious animals, personnel, or monkeypox cases both domestically and internationally, and symptoms such as fever and rash occur, timely medical attention should be sought from a reputable hospital. Generally, dermatologists can be chosen, and doctors should be informed of their epidemiological history. Before scabbing, close contact with others should be avoided.
