Monkeypox symptoms differ from previous outbreaks

Summary by Ground News

First study on cases from the ongoing outbreak of monkeypox in the UK looks at the clinical and demographic features of 54 patients with confirmed monkeypox infection. Researchers observed differences in the symptoms of these cases compared to previous monkeypox outbreaks. High proportion of cases had skin lesions in their anus or genital regions, suggesting transmission during close skin-to-skin contact, such as sexual activity. Authors call for additional resources to support sexual health and other specialist services in managing the current monkeypox outbreak.
