En lo que va de año, entre los países endémicos (1.408 casos sospechosos de #ViruelaDelMono y 66 muertes), la mayoría se detectó en la República Democrática del #Congo aunque también con más de una decena de contagios en Camerún, República Centroafricana y Nigeria.
2/3
Muchos pacientes de países no endémicos (no en Africa):
✔️erupciones cutáneas en zonas genitales y anales (sugiere el contacto sexual)
✔️detectados en consultas de salud sexual "involucran principalmente, pero no exclusivamente, a hombres que mantienen sexo con otros hombres"
3/3
Parecen contribuir a la diseminación de la epidemia de la #ViruelaDelMono:
✔️la facilidad en el desplazamiento
✔️un mayor número de viajes
✔️el levantamiento de las restricciones por la pandemia de la Covid-19
✔️determinados comportamientos sexuales
