LONDON (AP) — Scientists who have monitored numerous outbreaks of monkeypox in Africa say they are baffled by the disease’s recent spread in Europe and North America.
Cases of the smallpox-related disease have previously been seen only among people with links to central and West Africa. But in the past week, Britain, Spain, Portugal, Italy, U.S., Sweden and Canada all reported infections, mostly in young men who hadn’t previously traveled to Africa.
France, Germany, Belgium and Australia confirmed their first cases of monkeypox on Friday.
“I’m stunned by this. Every day I wake up and there are more countries infected,” said Oyewale Tomori, a virologist who formerly headed the Nigerian Academy of Science and who sits on several World Health Organization advisory boards.
“This is not the kind of spread we’ve seen in West Africa, so there may be something new happening in the West,” he said.
Monkeypox typically causes fever, chills, a rash and lesions on the face or genitals. WHO estimates the disease is fatal for up to one in 10 people, but smallpox vaccines are protective and some antiviral drugs are also being developed.
One of the theories British health officials are exploring is whether the disease is being sexually transmitted. Health officials have asked doctors and nurses to be on alert for potential cases, but said the risk to the general population is low.

Bill Gates knows.
Yeah, it’s an engineered virus.
We seriously have let these people go to far.
Another “benefit” of uncontrolled immigration.
Transmitted among the Ben Dover crowd
Ya think?

“This is not the kind of spread we’ve seen in West Africa, so there may be something new happening in the West,” he said.
It’s intentionally engineered and spread. No real mystery there.
Baffled by an engineered strain of a known virus?
Did this “escape” from the Ukraine labs?
Bills of lading
World immunity of diplomats
People are boinking monkeys without using protection, what’s not to understand? lol
Gee, just like those mystery pediatric hepatitis cases we’re suddenly not gearing about anymore....
Whatever could they have in common... 🤔
Now that everyone knows that germ warfare works...and that government has no idea what to really do...it’ll be hit after hit...
HIV 2.0?
It might have something to do with CoupFlu vaxxes.
Some are saying it is the result of the vax......
Mentions the use of adenovirus and orthopoxvirus as vectors.
Vaccine derived polio is a thing.
How about vaccine derived hepatitis and/or vaccine derived monkeypox...?
Has this strain of monkeypox had gain-of-function added???
