| SUMMARY - The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the | |
| Mpox (formerly known as "Monkeypox") outbreak on the continent | |
| of Africa a public health emergency of international concern. | |
| The Democratic Republic of Congo (not to be confused with the | |
| Republic of Congo) along with nearby countries are experiencing | |
| outbreaks of the illness at this time. Part of the concern by | |
| countries and organizations is that the current strain of Mpox | |
| is considered deadlier and more contagious than previous | |
| strains. | |
