Although monkeypox is endemic in West and Central Africa, it is not known for being especially transmissible. It was first found in monkeys in 1958, but rodents and other small mammals are thought to be the main animal host, and the virus is most commonly transmitted through close contact between these creatures and humans, causing people to come down with a fever, as well as a telltale bumpy rash.


It can also be spread between humans—either through respiratory droplets or the body fluids of an infected person—but this tends to be less common, as monkeypox is not contagious until a person is displaying symptoms, by which point they’re more likely to be convalescing and avoiding contact with others. Mateo Prochazka, an epidemiologist at the UKHSA, says some of the longest transmission chains documented for the virus are only six successive person-to-person infections.

But as the Monkeypox Tracker illustrates, clusters of cases are suddenly appearing around the globe without clear links back to endemic countries. To date, the UK has the most confirmed cases at 57, along with clusters in Portugal and Spain, but cases have also emerged as far away as Canada and Australia.

What are your thoughts regarding this?

While monkeypox is not highly contagious and typically only causes mild symptoms, it is still important to take precautions if you are in an area where the virus is present.

There is a possibility of genetic Modification on that viral pathogen. However the problem with the assumption that it is a man made or modified pathogen is incorrect at most. Pathogen such as virus goes from host to host. This host transference triggers natural genetic mutation. With newer mutation, the effects of the virus differs and it could become deadly or just highly contagious.
