South Florida health officials investigating presumptive case of monkeypox virus mannahhorse
What are symptoms of monkeypox disease?
Transmission of this viral disease requires close, prolonged contact with an infected person's lesions or indirectly with contaminated items. The first human case of monkeypox was discovered in 1970, and the disease was first reported outside of the continent of Africa in 2003. There were 71 confirmed and probable cases in six Midwestern U.S. states that year, all of whom were in contact with pet prairie dogs that had arrived from Ghana. Those prairie dogs were part of a shipment of 800 small mammals, like dormice and Gambian pouched rats. About a dozen of the animals were infected with monkeypox.
