Monkeypox virus is not new. It was first identified in 1958 in green monkeys, and the first human infection with symptoms similar to smallpox was detected in 1970, and in 1997 the World Health Organization (WHO) received the first report of an outbreak of aggregated infection with the monkeypox virus. Monkeypox virus has a history of 64 years, during which there have been major outbreaks, and is not a new virus. For China, although the country has a wide area of grassland, there are not many rodents, and there is a lack of animal intermediaries for monkeypox virus infection, so monkeypox virus infection is not very common and is relatively rare in China. If you suspect that you have monkeypox, you should go to the hospital in time to avoid affecting your health.
