World Health Organization (WHO) Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus touched upon the latest situation regarding monkey pox at the press conference held in Geneva, Switzerland. More than 70,000 worldwide monkey flower Ghebreyesus, stating that the case of a case of monkeypox has been detected, told WHO that 26 deaths have been reported due to monkeypox so far. Explaining that globally, cases continue to decrease, Ghebreyesus said that an increase in cases was reported in 21 countries, mostly in the Americas, last week.
“THE MOST DANGEROUS EPIDEMIC…”
“Once again, we point out that a receding epidemic may be the most dangerous because it may lead us to think the crisis is over and let our guard down. That’s not what WHO does. We continue to work with countries around the world to increase their testing capacity and monitor trends in the outbreak. We are concerned about case reports in Sudan, including refugee camps near the Ethiopian border. “Like Covid-19, monkeypox remains a public health emergency of international concern and WHO will continue to treat it that way.”
