Will monkey acne epidemic be popular in my country?Wu Zunyou's latest judgment

On July 23, Director -General of the WHO Tan Desai announced that the epidemic of the monkey acne was "PHEIC" (PHEIC). This is the highest -level public health alert issued by WHO to the world.

On July 25, Wu Zunyou, chief expert of the Popular disease of the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, issued a document to interpret the monkey acne:

The main source of infection caused by monkey acne spread is rodent animals infected with monkey acne viruses and primates including monkeys, chimpanzees, people, etc.

The incubation period of monkey acne is 5-21 days, mostly 6-13 days. Monkey acne is a self -limited disease. Most infected people recover within a few weeks. Severe cases are common in young children and low immune functions, and death may occur. A comprehensive analysis of historical data shows that the mortality of monkey acne is about 8.7%. In 2022, the mortality rate of the case of monkey acne cases was about 0.03%, and the five cases of death were reported in Africa. On June 24, Taiwan reported the confirmed case of monkey acne. This is also the first case of Chinese acne in this epidemic. At present, there are no reports of monkey acne in the Mainland, Hong Kong and Macau. Judging from the people and spreads of monkey acne in Europe and the United States, the transmission of monkey acne was introduced to mainland China, Hong Kong, China and Macau, China, but it was only a matter of time. Mainland China was the first to be attacked by a monkey acne epidemic. Due to the limitation of communication methods, the speed of communication and the scope of the population is far from being popular in the new crown. In other words, the epidemic of monkey acne will not cause large -scale popularity in my country. To prevent monkey acne, one must avoid contact with the infected animals, and the other must be as much as possible to contact people directly as much as possible. Those who have been vaccinated in the past have a certain degree of cross protection for monkey acne virus. Research in the African Monkey Popular area showed that the prevention effect of ceiling vaccines on monkey acne is about 85%.
