As public health officials keep track of the contagious Delta variant of COVID-19 across the U.S., the CDC is also watching for a potential outbreak of another virus — monkeypox.

More than 200 people in 27 states are being monitored for possible exposure after they had contact with an American who contracted monkeypox in Nigeria before traveling to Texas earlier this month, accordingSo far, none of the people who are being followed are considered high-risk, and none have contracted the virus.

“It’s believed the risk for spread of monkeypox on the plane and in the airports is low, as travelers were required to wear masks due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and monkeypox is primarily spread through respiratory droplets,” accordingMonkeypox stems from a virus that is like smallpox.

Monkeypox is rarely detected in people, STAT reported. During the 2003 outbreak, which was the first time that human cases were reported outside of Africa, a shipment of animals from Ghana contained rodents and small mammals that had the virus. Those who contracted monkeypox became ill after having contact with infected prairie dogs purchased as pets, the CDC reported.
