MONKEYPOX
MONKEYPOX
What:
• Discovered in 1958 when 2 outbreaks of pox-like dx
occurred in colonies of monkeys kept for research
• Despite being named “monkeypox”, the source of the dx
remains unknown.
• Rodents and non-human primates (like monkeys) might
harbor the virus and infect people.
• First human case of monkeypox was recorded in 1970.
• Prior to 2022 outbreak had been reported in people in
several central and western African countries.
MONKEYPOX
What:
• Previously, almost all cases outside Africa were
linked to:
– International travel to countries where diagnosis (dx)
commonly occurs
– Imported animals
MONKEYPOX
What:
• Same family of viruses as variola (smallpox)
• Similar in symptom to smallpox but milder
• Rarely fatal
• 2 types
– West African (outbreak)
– Congo Basin
• NOT RELATED TO CHICKENPOX!
MONKEYPOX
Is it deadly?
• West African = rarely fatal
– Over 99% who get this form of dx are likely to survive
– Symptoms can be extremely painful, permanent scarring
– Likely to get seriously ill or die:
• People w/ weak immune systems
• Children under 8yo
• Hx of eczema
• Pregnant/breastfeeding
• Congo Basin = 10% fatality rate
MONKEYPOX
Am I at Risk?
• Risk at this time is low
• Does not spread easily between people
• However, anyone in close contact w/ a person w/
monkeypox can get it and shout take protective
measures
• If you don’t have MP symptoms, you cannot
spread the virus to others
MONKEYPOX
Symptoms?
• Fever
• Headache
• Muscle aches and
backache
• Swollen lymph nodes
• Chills
• Exhaustion
MONKEYPOX
Symptoms?
• Respiratory
symptoms
– Sore throat
– Nasal Congestion
– Cough
• Rash that can look
like pimples or
blisters (face, inside
the mouth, hands,
MONKEYPOX
Symptoms?
• The rash goes through different stages before
healing completely, typically 2-4 weeks.
• Sometimes rash comes first ff’d by other
symptoms
• Others experience only a rash
• Symptoms usually appear 1-2 weeks after
infection.
MONKEYPOX
Prevention.
• Avoid close, skin-to-skin contact w/ people who
have a rash that looks like MP:
– Do not touch the rash/scabs of someone who has
MP.
– Do not kiss, hug, cuddle or have sex with someone
who has MP.
• Avoid contact w/ objects used by person w/ MP
– Do not share eating utensils or cups
MONKEYPOX
Prevention.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water or
use alcohol-based sanitizer, esp. before eating or
touching your face and after using the bathroom.
MONKEYPOX
Vaccines.
• CDC recommends vaccination for people exposed
to MP and those more likely to get MP:
– Contact of someone with MP
– Sexual partner in the past 2 weeks of someone
diagnosed with MP
– People who had multiple sexual partners in the past 2 weeks
in an area with known MP
MONKEYPOX
Vaccines.
– People whose jobs may expose them to orthopoxviruses:
• Lab workers who perform testing for orthopoxviruses
• Lab workers who handle cultures or animals with orthopoxviruses
• Some designated HC or Public Health workers
MONKEYPOX
Treatment.
• There are no treatment (tx) specifically for MP virus
infections.
• However, MP and smallpox viruses are genetically
similar, w/c means that antiviral drugs and vaccines
developed to protect against smallpox may be used to
prevent and tx MP virus infections.
• Antivirals (like tecovirimat) may be recommended for
people who are likely to get severely ill, like pts w/
weakened immune systems.

UN Definition of Indigenous Peoples (1993)
Indigenous communities, peoples and nations are those which,
having a historical continuity with pre-invasion and pre-colonial
societies that developed on their territories, consider themselves
distinct from other sectors of societies now prevailing in those
territories, or parts of them. They form at present non-dominant
sectors of society and are determined to preserve, develop and
transmit to future generations their ancestral territories, and their
ethnic identity, as the basis of their continued existence as peoples,
in accordance with their own cultural patterns, social institutions
and legal systems.
