The US has one of the highest levels of reported monkeypox cases in the world, according to the latest CDC data.
The U.S. has one of the highest levels of reported monkeypox cases in the world, according to theThe U.S. has reported 3,590 known monkeypox cases, falling just behind Spain's 3,738 cases. Germany and the U.K., which previously had the highest numbers, have both reported more than 2,400 cases.
During the weekend, the World Health Organization declared the global monkeypox outbreak a public health emergency of international concern. The declaration prompts countries to coordinate an international response and investigate prevention measures, treatments, and vaccines. Public health officials have said the actual number of cases is likely much higher than the reported totals, and more cases will be identified as testing capacity and contact tracing increase, according"I would like you all to understand that we anticipate an increase in cases in the coming weeks," Rochelle Walensky, MD, the CDC director, said during a news briefing earlier this month.
Although 99% of the cases in the U.S. have been linked to male-to-male sexual contact, federal officials confirmed last week that two children in the U.S. tested positive for the monkeypox, which they likely caught at home.. The baby was delivered safely during the weekend, and the newborn and mother are doing well.
