Monkey pox: three suspected cases in Morocco
By Le Figaro with AFP
Posted yesterday at 23:27, updated 5 hours ago
Morocco has discovered three suspected cases of monkeypox, for the first time in the kingdom, the Ministry of Health announced on Monday evening. "We have detected three suspected cases of monkeypox who are in good health and under medical supervision," said Dr. Mouad Mrabet, coordinator of the National Center for Public Health Emergency Operations.
In a statement, Mouad Mrabet stressed that the medical analyzes were in progress and that the results will be known “soon”. He did not indicate the places of detection of the suspected cases, nor the identity of the three people. The Ministry of Health has just published a "surveillance and response plan" for the detection and treatment of cases of monkeypox and for health protection.
Monkey pox, a less dangerous cousin of smallpox eradicated for about 40 years, has made its sudden appearance in recent weeks in countries where it is normally only very rare: Europe and North America.
As cases continue to rise outside endemic areas of Africa, the World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed an "atypical" situation on Monday , but it deemed it possible to "stop" this transmission of the disease between humans.

Monkeypox: new suspected case detected in Morocco
Written by Kawtar Chaat on Tuesday, June 14, 2022
A new suspected case of monkey pox (Monkeypox) has been detected in Morocco, Minister of Health and Social Protection Khalid Ait Taleb told the Second Chamber of Parliament on Tuesday.
This case, if confirmed, will be added to the first confirmed case, which was announced in the Kingdom on June 2, noted the minister.
Ait Taleb also explained that 7 suspected cases have tested negative since the global health alert on monkeypox, stressing that Morocco's experience with the Covid-19 virus is very useful in dealing with monkeypox disease. The minister stressed that his department "has experience in the management of health crises".
"Today, units are installed at all Moroccan crossing points to diagnose the virus with ease and alert the ministry to take action at the regional level," he said.
The Minister recalled that there is no cure for the monkeypox virus, noting that recovery occurs after three to four weeks, while all contact with infected people should be avoided.
He warned that "the incubation period of the virus is between 3 and 21 days, a period during which a person can transmit the virus even in the absence of symptoms", he warned, recalling that "Monkey pox is caused by a virus known since 1959 and spread to Central and West Africa in 1970."
The Minister said that there are four laboratories qualified to carry out confirmation tests for the presence of monkeypox, considering that the country "does not need to approve other laboratories, because the disease is not widespread and things are in order."
