1Internal Medicine, Federal Medical and Dental College, Islamabad, PAK.
Abstract:
The start of 2022 was marked by the sudden surge in the detection of the viral disease - monkeypox. The recent and ongoing COVID-19 epidemic makes the re-emerging of viral zoonosis particularly worrisome. The rapid spread of the monkeypox virus has sparked concerns about the start of a new epidemic. In this review, I summarize the epidemiology, clinical signs, and symptoms, transmission, diagnosis, management, and prevention of the monkeypox virus. Clinicians need to have a high index of suspicion for monkeypox in patients with high-risk factors presenting with new onset progressive rash. Patients with confirmed or suspected monkeypox infections need to be isolated until all the lesions have resolved.
