Recently, cases of virus infection have been reported in Portugal, Spain, England and the United States. Until recently, all cases outside Africa were imported cases from recent travelers to the Democratic Republic of Congo or Nigeria. The cases reported in May 2022 are the first autochthonous cases, whose transmission route has not yet been established.

Monkeypox virus, although known to cause “monkey pox” or “simian pox”, is a virus that infects rodents in Africa, and monkeys are likely accidental hosts, as are humans. The infection has symptoms very similar to human smallpox, but with low rates of transmission and lethality.
