Why did monkeypox cases suddenly increase?
Why did monkeypox cases suddenly increase?
After the global outbreak of monkeypox in 2022, the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency of international concern. In May of this year, the World Health Organization announced the end of the monkeypox emergency. Although the global trend of monkeypox cases is generally decreasing, there has been an increase in reported cases in some countries and regions recently, especially in the Asia Pacific region.
In this regard, experts called for calm, saying that the disease is unlikely to lead to large-scale transmission, because Monkeypox virus is relatively easy to detect, control and treat.
"Although the number of monkeypox cases in China has increased, it will not cause large-scale transmission of the virus, which is mainly due to the rapid detection kits and effective isolation measures, the risk of monkeypox transmission is relatively easy to control." An expert on Monkeypox virus said in an interview with First Finance on July 10, "monkeypox infection will basically not appear Asymptomatic."
Experts also said that frequent and unprotected sex is the main reason for monkeypox infection, which can also lead to the spread of other sexual diseases, but the risk of ordinary people infected with Monkeypox virus is low. Experts add that the recent increase in the number of cases in China is mainly related to the increase in personnel mobility
The general population infected with monkeypox
Extremely low probability
Should the increase in monkeypox cases raise awareness? Many experts in the clinical infection department said in the interview with the health client of People's Daily that the risk of ordinary people infected with Monkeypox virus is low, and there is no need to panic.

"Controlling the source of infection, cutting off the Pathogen transmission, and protecting vulnerable people are the three major ways to prevent monkeypox from spreading on a large scale. With the increase of confirmed cases, it is not ruled out that there may be more sporadic and related confirmed cases among the next contacts, but the possibility of epidemic formation is very small. In addition, there is no evidence to prove that the virus transmission is related to temperature at present, and as long as the general population pays attention to prevention, the risk of infection is extremely low." Li Dong, Chief physician of the Department of Respiratory and infectious diseases of Beijing You'an Hospital, said in an interview with the health client of People's Daily.
Li Dong once suggested that in case of fever, Lymphadenopathy, herpes, etc. among the contacts, they should go to the dermatology or infection department of the hospital in time, and professional medical personnel should diagnose through various detection methods; The general population should avoid close contact with monkeypox patients and contacts, and actively learn about monkeypox related knowledge to develop good hygiene habits
On July 11th, Dr. Li Dongzeng posted on his personal Weibo account that there is currently no approved vaccine or medication for post exposure prevention in China. Symptoms of monkeypox cases are more obvious after onset, but they are already contagious when the symptoms are not obvious in the early stages. High risk populations need to be vigilant and take personal protection measures
