A case of monkeypox in the U.S. was confirmed out of Massachusetts on Wednesday. This is the first case reported in the U.S. this year.

Authorities did not say if the men had a history of travel to Africa or any links with recent cases in Britain or elsewhere.said Wednesday they had identified two new cases of monkeypox, one in London and another in southeast England. They said neither case had previously traveled to Africa and that it was possible they were infected in the U.K.

Earlier this week the U.K. agency reported four cases of monkeypox they said had been spread among gay and bisexual men in London. The agency said the risk to the general population "remains low."
