More than a thousand cases per day, this infectious disease may spread rapidly in the United States

Based on the US Cable Television News Network and the British "Daily Mail" reported that according to data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as of August 9, local time, there were as many as 9,492 cases of acne in the United States, of which 1424 were newly diagnosed on the 8th day. Cases set a new high since the outbreak of monkey acne epidemic in the United States this year.

Cobax, an expert in infectious diseases in Massachusetts, believes that with the beginning of the autumn semester, a large number of students return to school. In addition, many universities do not have plans to respond to monkey acne epidemic. Once the monkey acne virus enters the campus, it is likely to spread quickly. He called for preparation of monkey acne test agents, vaccines and antiviral drugs in advance, and sent it to the place where the epidemic could outbreak.

On August 8th, some people gathered outside the federal government building of San Francisco, protesting the government's inadequate response and calling for correct measures to fight against the epidemic of the monkey acne. Many protesters who came to the scene had suffered from monkey acne, and even suffered the double torture of the new crown and acne virus. They said that they did not get timely treatment after the diagnosis, and until now, many people still waited hard on the list of vaccines. They felt "abandoned by the government."
