In September 2024, the mpox outbreak continues to pose a significant public health threat in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other African countries. The World Health Organization has once again declared it a public health emergency of international concern, marking the second time in two years that mpox, previously known as monkeypox, has received this designation. The ongoing outbreak has also spread to the United States, with approximately 250 new cases reported each month.

Traditionally, mpox is transmitted through direct contact with infected animals. However, in the current outbreak, there have been instances of person-to-person transmission, including through sexual contact. Health officials first observed this mode of transmission in a new outbreak in eastern DRC and neighboring countries last fall, raising concerns about the virus’s ability to spread rapidly in densely populated areas.

In response to the escalating crisis, STAT senior writer Helen Branswell has addressed some of the most pressing questions surrounding the current state of the mpox outbreak and strategies for containing it. The video provides valuable insights into the latest developments and offers guidance on effective prevention and control measures.

As efforts to combat the outbreak intensify, it is crucial for global health authorities to collaborate closely and implement comprehensive strategies to mitigate the spread of mpox. Public awareness campaigns, vaccination programs, and enhanced surveillance systems are essential components of a multifaceted approach to containing the virus and preventing further transmission.

In conclusion, the mpox outbreak remains a significant global health concern, underscoring the urgent need for coordinated action and resource allocation to address the ongoing crisis effectively. By staying informed, practicing good hygiene, and following recommended guidelines, individuals can play a vital role in protecting themselves and their communities from the threat of mpox.
