What is monkeypox?
Monkeypox is a rare disease caused by the
monkeypox virus. It leads to rash and flu-
like symptoms. Like the better known virus
that causes smallpox, it’s a member of the
family called orthopoxvirus.
Monkeypox was discovered in 1958 when
two outbreaks of a pox-like disease
occurred in groups of monkeys being used
for research. It’s spread mainly through
human contact with infected rodents, but
can sometimes be spread through skin-to
skin contact with a person who is infected.
There are two known types (clades) of
monkeypox virus-one that originated in
Central Africa and one that originated in
West Africa.

How does monkeypox spread?
Monkeypox spreads in different ways:
Through close, personal, often skin-to-skin contact with
someone who has the virus:
.Through direct contact with their rash, scabs, or
body fluids
By breathing in the virus during prolonged, face
to-face contact
.During intimate physical contact such as
kissing, cuddling, hugging, massage or sex
From touching items (such as clothes, bedding, or
towels) that were used by someone who has the virus
During pregnancy, from the pregnant person to the baby
.From infected animals:
By being scratched or bitten by the animal
.By preparing or eating meat or using products
from the animal
Someone who has monkeypox can spread it from the time
their symptoms start until their rash has fully healed, all scabs
have fallen off, and a fresh layer of skin has formed. This
usually takes 2-4 weeks.
What are the symptoms of
COVID-19?
COVID-19 symptoms vary from person to
person. In fact, some infected people don’t
develop any symptoms (asymptomatic). In
general, people with COVID-19 report some
of the following symptoms:
Fever or chills.
Cough.
Shortness of breath or difficulty
breathing.
Tiredness.
Muscle or body aches.
Headaches.
New loss of taste or smelI
Sore throat.
Congestion or runny nose.
Nausea or vomiting.
Diarrhea.
Symptoms of monkeypox
If you get infected with monkeypox, it usually
takes between 5 and 21 days for the first
symptoms to appear.
The first symptoms of monkeypox include:
a high temperature
a headache
muscle aches
backache
swollen glands
shivering (chills)
exhaustion
joint pain
A rash usually appears 1 to 5 days after the first
symptoms. The rash often begins on the face, then
spreads to other parts of the body. This can
include the mouth, genitals and anus.
You may also have anal pain or bleeding from
your bottom.
The rash is sometimes confused with chickenpox. It
starts as raised spots, which turn into small blisters
filled with fluid. These blisters eventually form
scabs which later fall off.
