Nah, mpox is now lurking around in Nigeria. Where did they get the infection? Was there a traveler in that place? A child age 2 is infected. The infected person may not have idea or was mpox which gradually spread.

Hmm it's well, let's just be careful in the places we go to and who we interact with these period. It's possible others might have had contact with them before they where discovered.

In my country, there are all in all 15 mpox patients and some are now okay. But the newest ones are still on isolation for treatment.

I read in the news yesterday that one case of mpox found in India. He is isolated and the investigation is being done to check with whom he got in contact in last few days

 

[Augusta]

The sickness is just almost everywhere now. it is not easy now with the hunger we are even facing now

 

[Stardom22]

I have heard that that disease is very deadly and spreads so fast for sure. I am glad that the virus has never been a serious threat here in my country.

 

[Starmix]

Mpox is spreading too fast. It's alarming. Hoping for an immediate vaccine for monkey pox. There are many countries now infected with this very contagious virus.

 

[Sanjeev]

Yes, it is alarming and the government of the country must take it seriously and should take some immediate action to stop spreading of the same.

 

[Starmix]

There should be nationwide vaccination but it's expensive and the government may not have a budget of it. Let's just stay away from the travellers.

 

[Sanjeev]

It is spreading fast all over the world now. Is there any vaccination for it?

There is vaccination. In my place we are advised to go to the designated pharmacies to get the shot all paid by the city government.

Yes, it is alarming and the government of the country must take it seriously and should take some immediate action to stop spreading of the same.

Yes I hope the government don't joke with this as they normally do. We don't want to have expedimic in our hands

 

[Sanjeev]

Yes, we don't have it in our hand but still they can aware people what to do so that it may not spread further

 

[Augusta]

Yes we need to try and make sure that it is not spread. This will help one to stay safe and sound all the time

 

[Starmix]

When there is a traveler in our place let us be alarmed and never go near that person. The monkey pox appears after 5 days.

 

[Sanjeev]

Is it more dangerous than corona virus? Is there any treatment of the same?

 

[Starmix]

Is it more dangerous than corona virus? Is there any treatment of the same?

No, mpox could be cured and it only becomes deadly if the victim does not report the case to the health department for cure and temporary isolation. Corona virus is the deadliest. It spares no statuses.

 

[Augusta]

Yesh it has no clear solution for now but we can really seek out esys we can sort that out. But if not all will be well

 

[Starmix]

So far, there is no news of a additional victim of mpox. Those who were isolated and treated were now return to their families already safe.
