Monkeypox is spreading through sexual contact, but it’s not a sexually transmitted infection, WHO says. Here’s what that means

According to the World Health Organization, Monkeypox is mostly spread through sex between men in North America and Europe.

The disease can be spread by close contact with people, animals, or materials that are contaminated with the virus. It enters the body through broken skin, the respiratory tract or through the eyes, nose or mouth according to the CDC.

The virus is not considered a sexually transmitted disease if it is spread through semen and vaginal fluids. Anyone in close contact with a person who has the virus is at high risk of getting it.

Sexual contact can spread diseases. Andy Seale, an adviser to the WHO about HIV, hepatitis and other sexually transmitted infections, told CNBC that it doesn't mean that it's a sexually transmitted disease.

According to a Wall Street Journal report, a vaccine manufacturer is ramping up production in order to help fight a growing outbreak of monkeypox.

There have been 92 confirmed cases and 28 suspected cases of monkeypox reported to the WHO from 12 countries.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told Fortune last week that six people are being monitored for monkeypox, all of whom sat next to a person on a May 3-4 flight from Nigeria to London.

There is a rare disease called Monkeypox that is related to cowpox. The time between exposure and the start of symptoms can range from five to 21 days, according to the CDC.

In Africa, where the disease is typically found, monkeypox can be fatal in as many as 10% of people. The illness lasts between two and four weeks.

According to the CDC, a vaccine that protects against monkeypox can protect against infections by at least 85%.

According to the CDC, there are two vaccines licensed in the US to prevent smallpox. The U.S. licenses it to prevent monkeypox.

In recent weeks, the company has received calls from many countries asking about Jynneos, which is known as Imvanex in Europe and Imvamune.

The company will be increasing its manufacturing in the weeks and months ahead, but the vaccine supply is currently limited.

We feel confident based on discussions that we will be able to meet the demand in a relatively short period of time.

President Biden told reporters on Sunday that the public should be concerned about the rising number of cases in the U.S. and abroad.

Biden told reporters that it was something that everyone should be concerned about.

The country hasvaccines to take care of it, Biden said on Monday.

The U.S. and Canada are the only two countries that have enough of the vaccine to last a long time. The CDC says the US has enough vaccine to give to every person in the country if there is an outbreak of the disease.
