Clinically stable monkeypox patients to transfer to dedicated isolation facility

SINGAPORE - All monkeypox cases who are clinically stable will be transferred to a dedicated monkeypox isolation facility from Monday .

These cases will recover in the monkeypox isolation facility until they are non-infectious and fit for discharge, said MOH. "Those particularly vulnerable to complications are young children, pregnant women and immunocompromised individuals," it added. As for the shortening of the quarantine period, MOH said monkeypox transmission requires close physical or prolonged contact, including face to face and skin to skin contact such as sexual contact, so"the risk to the general public remains low"."Evidence also points to a mean incubation period of approximately eight to nine days with most close contacts developing symptoms by Day 14 from their last exposure to a confirmed case.
