New York, America’s monkeypox hotspot: Chefs identify fifth suspected case

New York City revealed its fifth suspected case of monkeypox, health chiefs announced Thursday night, bringing the national number to 22.

Empire State officials did not release further details about the case, including the gender of the patients and whether they were related to international travel.

But the new infection is making the 8 million American city a hotspot for the tropical disease native to West Africa.

Four more cases of monkeypox were observed yesterday, with Chicago, Los Angeles and Philadelphia all reporting their first infected patients.

Most cases were discovered in gay and bisexual men who had recently returned from international travel. However, some are also seen in “close contacts” of cases as a sign of human-to-human transmission on American soil.

More than 700 cases have been identified worldwide, most of them in Spain and the UK, with the number exceeding 200.

In the New York City case, she tested positive for the orthopox virus, the family that includes smallpox and monkeypox.

The sample will now be sent for testing to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to confirm this is a case of monkeypox. An orthodox positive person is very likely to have monkeypox.

The New York City Department of Health announced its fifth infection yesterday on Twitter, “Another person in New York has tested positive for the orthopox virus, believed to be monkeypox.

Five cases have been identified so far.

Monkeypox is rare in New York, but we can prevent its spread. Learn more about prevention and symptoms.

The first case in the city involves a man who was hospitalized in Manhattan after the virus developed symptoms.

Details on other cases were not provided.

Monkeypox has now spread to 11 states with the second highest number of cases (four) in California.

Florida has three infections, while Colorado and Utah have two.

Georgia, Massachusetts, Virginia, Washington, Pennsylvania, and Illinois each reported infections.

Monkeypox is most commonly spread in patients through physical contact with infectious skin lesions.

Infected people develop a fever within the first 21 days, before a rash appears on their face and spreads to the rest of the body.

It can take up to four weeks for symptoms to disappear as the rash goes through several stages before finally disappearing.

Most cases are mild, but between one in 10 and one in 100 infected people die from the disease.

More cases of monkeypox have been detected in Europe than in the United States, where it may have been infected.

Spain (208) reported the highest number of cases on the continent, followed by the United Kingdom (206) and Portugal (138).

WHO leaders suggest that the epidemic on the continent is linked to unprotected sex in two lauds in Spain and Belgium.

As in America, cases predominantly involve gay and bisexual men, but health officials warn that nothing can stop the disease from spreading to other groups.

There are also growing calls to contain the outbreak, with experts saying that if the virus continues to spread, it could spread to the animal population and become a reservoir.

On Wednesday, Dr Hans Kluge, head of the WHO’s European branch, urged people to reduce the number of sexual partners to help contain the epidemic.

He also warned that tropical disease “may not be controlled” in Europe, as there are still undetected transmission chains.
