Sharjah24- Reuters: Zambia's health ministry on Thursday reported the country's first case of mpox, without disclosing which variant had been recorded.
The World Health Organization in August declared mpox a global public health emergency for the second time in two years, as a new variant of the viral infection spread from Democratic Republic of Congo to neighbouring African countries.
The new clade 1b strain has caused global concern as it seems to spread more easily though routine close contact.
