Default Virus Monkeypox in England, Spain,Portugal,USA
The person
just came back from Nigeria


https://www.gov.uk/government/news/m...d-in-england-1


[Initial symptoms include fever, headache,
muscle aches, backache,
swollen lymph nodes, chills
and exhaustion.
A rash can develop,
often beginning on the face,
then spreading to other parts of the body.
The rash changes and goes through
different stages before finally forming a scab,
which later falls off.]

[A person who recently travelled to Nigeria
has been diagnosed with the disease
The traveller is being treated by specialists
at Guy's and St Thomas's in London
The Government's health security agency
reassured public that infection is rare with
usually mild symptoms and does
not easily spread between human beings]

Probably worth mentioning, given recent global events, Monkeypox has very low person-to-person transmissibility.

Lovely. What next? Something retro? Maybe Polio, perhaps? Or TB...?

I swear all we ever get is bad news upon bad news,we hear about more diseases and illnesses than actual cures.

Monkeypox contact tracing extended to Scotland

[Public Health Scotland has confirmed it is helping
to trace contacts of a monkeypox patient
who was identified in England.

The patient had recently travelled to Nigeria,
where they were believed to have caught the virus.

A "small number of individuals" in Scotland
are now reported to be in quarantine after
being identified as contacts of the patient.

The move was said to be a
"standard and precautionary exercise".]

[And Public Health Scotland said the
risk to the wider public remained very low.]
