Book excerpt: Mpox (Orthopoxvirus) is a viral zoonotic disease that occurs predominantly in Central and West Africa (i.e. Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Gabon and South Sudan) and is occasionally exported to other regions. It is transmitted to humans through close contact with an infected person or animal, or with materials contaminated with the virus such as beddings, and droplet exposure via exhaled large droplets.
