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.
belongs to a family of viruses that includes smallpox. Most people recover from monkeypox within weeks, but the World Health Organization said that the disease is fatal for up to one in 10 people. Last year, there were two cases of monkeypox reported in the U.S., out of Texas and Maryland. Both patients had returned from travels to Nigeria before their diagnosis.
A vaccine developed against smallpox has been approved for monkeypox, and several anti-virals also appear to be effective. Also on Wednesday, Portuguese health authorities confirmed five cases of monkeypox in young men, and Britain announced another two, marking an unusual outbreak in Europe. All the Portuguese cases involve men, most of them young, authorities said. They have skin lesions and were reported to be in stable condition. 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."
