MONKEY POX - WHY NOW?
reactivation/lab leak?
"US Government researchers in 1950s were infecting monkeys with smallpox
Monkeypox was first seen in 1958, in monkeys used in medical experiments
first recorded human case occurred during a smallpox vaccination drive in Congo in 1970"

CIDOFOVIR VS ACICLOVIR
#akcmonkeypox
"It (cidofovir) has inhibitory effects on varicella-zoster virus replication in vitro although no clinical trials have been done to date, likely due to the abundance of safer alternatives such as aciclovir"

MONKEYPOX - ANALYSING THE AVAILABLE DATA
*demographic pattern is unusual
*least chances of dissemination through traveling
*reactivation is far-fetched since it was not endemic till now
*infectivity is low, disability is moderate
*WHY ONLY MONKEYPOX? we are having
1/1

too many cases of tuberculosis, herpes, other respiratory and GI viruses
*is it not,
MONKEYPOX IS PART OF A PATTERN, OF OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTION OF OTHER MICROORGANISMS.
IN ALTERED IMMUNE STATUS DUE TO SOME OBVIOUS CAUSES
