BERLIN, May 31 —It is not clear yet whether the spread of monkeypox can be contained completely, the World Health Organisation said today, adding that its goal was to contain the outbreak by stopping human-to-human transmission to the maximum extent possible.

"Tools to manage it - including readily available diagnostics, vaccines and therapeutics - are not likely to be immediately or widely accessible to countries," it said in a statement. Over 20 countries where monkeypox is not endemic have reported outbreaks of the viral disease, with more than 300 confirmed or suspected infections mostly in Europe. — Reuters
