Abstract

Mpox, a zoonotic orthopoxvirus, originally identified in 1958, exhibits two distinct genetic strains or clades, Clade 1 and Clade 2. Prior to 2022, mpox was predominantly isolated in the endemic regions of West and Central Africa. Sporadic outbreaks of travel-associated Clade 2 mpox had previously occurred in non-endemic areas, but persistent human-to-human transmission within non-endemic regions had not been documented until recently. In May 2022, a global mpox outbreak emerged, impacting over 100 countries worldwide. This prompted the World Health Organization to declare mpox a public health emergency of international concern.¹.

Mpox (monkeypox)。

Mpox是一种人畜共患的正痘病毒，最初于1958年发现，表现出两个不同的遗传株或进化枝，进化枝1和进化枝2。在2022年之前，麻疹主要在西非和中非流行区域被隔离。以前在非流行地区曾发生过与旅行相关的2支mpox散发疫情，但直到最近才有在非流行地区持续的人际传播的记录。2022年5月，出现了全球麻疹疫情，影响了全世界100多个国家。这促使世界卫生组织宣布mpox为国际关注的突发公共卫生事件。
