WHAT IS MONKEYPOX? Monkeypox is defined as an
infection that is infected in human body by a
virus known as the Monkeypox virus. This virus
belongs to a category genus known as
Orthopoxvirus which is closely related to the
Variola virus, which is known to be responsible
for causing Smallpox. The majority of the
infections that are caused by the Monkeypox
happened in the areas where the virus is in its
endemic stage, which includes various nations of
Central and West Africa. WHAT CAUSES
MONKEYPOX? Monkeypox is such a virus that is
transmitted from fauna to human beings, known as
a viral zoonosis having indications same as the
ones seen earlier in patients suffering from
small pox. This is to be noted that the symptoms
appearing are less serious in nature medically.
This is caused by the Monkeypox virus that is
classified in the cluster of the Orthopoxvirus
genus of the Poxviridae family. HOW IS MONKEYPOX
TRANSMITTED? The maximum chances of getting
affected with the virus is when a person comes in
direct contact with a case of a confirmed
monkeypox, froth or a surface and object that are
contaminated. The highest chances for
transmission are considered to be starting from
the commencement of the early indications until
lesions get covered with hard crusty skin
(scabbed over) and those scabs have
decayed. Source - https//www.genuinedrugs123.com

WHAT ARE THE MONKEYPOX SYMPTOMS? The symptoms of
Monkeypox that will be seen initially are as
follows- High temperature Pain in the
body Feeling tired This disease is very akin
to the smallpox but is considered to be less
dangerous. As a result of this disease a patient
can experience rash that may lead to red bumps on
the skin. WHERE IS MONKEYPOX FOUND IN THE HUMAN
BODY? Typically, your face will get affected
first then other parts of your body will start to
get affected gradually. But this virus can
commence in other parts of the body as
well. Source - https//www.genuinedrugs123.com/

WHAT IS THE CURE OF MONKEYPOX? Monkeypox belongs
to the group of the Orthopoxvirus genus of
viruses, comprising of smallpox. Fortunately,
due to a thing which is known as
cross-protection, smallpox vaccines also work
effectively for monkeypox. You will get 2
varieties of vaccines for the smallpox. A kind of
vaccine of smallpox which is an older one
consists of the live vaccinia virus. The
original one in this cluster is ACAM2000. In US,
it has received approval for giving protection to
the people against smallpox disease. Although
ACAM2000 cannot lead to smallpox, the vaccinia
virus it contains can duplicate after the vaccine
is administered, spreading from the person who
has received the vaccination to a person without
the vaccination coming in close contact with the
site of the injection administration or any fluid
leaking from the site for up to following 21
days. This also depicts that ACAM2000 can lead
to several side effects and should be restricted
to be given to the groups with high risk factors,
like- women who are pregnant or breastfeeding,
and people who have compromised immune systems.
Patients who have a weak immune system, those
affected with HIV, may fall very sick from this
immunization. Source - https//www.genuinedrugs1
