📢 Published today in @NEJM to aid #monkeypox diagnosis:

A global collaborative case series led by @ShareEastLondon @QMUL describing 528 confirmed infections from 43 centres in 16 countries + an image library.

@rcgp @RCPhysicians

bit.ly/3PGg7js @JohnPThornhill🧵 2/Before April 2022, MPXV in humans was seldom reported outside African regions where it is endemic. Currently, cases are occurring globally. Transmission, risk factors, clinical presentation & outcomes of infection are poorly defined. MPXV research has been grossly underfunded
