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. |
