The predominance, in the current outbreak, of diagnosed human #monkeypox cases among #men having sex with men (MSM), and the nature of the presenting lesions in some cases, suggest transmission occurred during #sexual intercourse.
2/4
The overall risk of #monkeypox is assessed as:
✔️ moderate for persons having multiple sexual partners (including some groups of #MSM) and
✔️low for the broader population.
3/4
Cases of #monkeypox should remain #isolated until their rash heals completely, avoiding contact with immunosuppressed persons and pets.

Abstaining from sexual activity and close physical contact is also advised until the rash heals.
