New Pandemic Mpox..!? It has come to our neighboring country..!!?
It has come to our neighboring country. How does monkey Pox spread? The world is now recovering from the tragedies left by Corona. Still here and there the scars of the wounds left by that epidemic are still there. In this background, another new tension has started in the world. Part of this is the trembling monkey Pox which is widespread in central Africa. Yes... now the monkeypox epidemic has become a new problem for the world. MonkeyPox, which spread in the center of Africa, has now reached India's neighbor Pakistan. On the other hand, the World health Organization (WHO) has declared an international extreme status in this regard. How it spreads in this background. Let's see what are its characteristics...!
How does monkeypox spread?:
Monkeypox is spread from person to person by direct contact. It is said that there is a possibility of infection due to secretions from the mouth and other organs. It is said that there is a possibility of infection even if patients use used clothes and other items. One of these variants is said to spread rapidly mainly due to sexual contact!
These symptoms can appear anytime from one day to three weeks after this virus enters the human body in the ways mentioned above. Symptoms include fever, dry throat, blisters, joint pains, and back pain. These may last for at least 2 to 4 weeks. But it depends on the immunity of the patient.
Are there vaccines?:
When you hear the name of any virus, the first thoughts that come up is whether there is a vaccine! At the same time, when MonkeyPox came on the screen, the same question was raised. However, two types of vaccines are currently in use to prevent this virus. These were listed by the World health Organization's Strategic Advisory Group's Emergency Wing a week ago. However, it seems that these vaccines will be somewhat problematic as the respective health departments have not yet issued permits in many countries. But with the recent decision of the World health Organization, these processes will be accelerated!
And to what extent there is a danger to the lives of those infected with this virus will also be a matter of intense discussion. There are actually two variants of MonkeyPox. They are divided into clade-1 and clade-2. Clade-1 stands for Congo Basin clade while Clade-2 stands for West African clade. While clade-1 causes serious health problems, clade-2 is said to be less dangerous. Clade-1 has a mortality rate of 1 to 10 percent, while Clade-2 has a mortality rate of less than 1 percent! However, the clade-1 IB variant, which currently has the highest mortality rate worldwide, is spreading rapidly. This has created a new concern in the countries of the world. This variant spreads rapidly mainly due to sexual contact.
At present, 100 cases of infection with variants of this clade-1 have been identified in four countries. Among them are Burundi, Kenya, uganda and Rwanda. So far the total number of cases of monkey fox is 15,600 while the number of deaths is 537. Meanwhile, in India, in 2022, cases of monkeypox were reported. Labs confirmed that 27 people were infected with it.
