"...and clusters of deaths across Ituri all point towards a potentially much larger outbreak than what is currently being #detected and reported."
Since there's no #vaccine, "this is considered extraordinary."

Second #meeting of #IHR (2005) Emergency #Committee regarding the upsurge of #mpox 2024
Source: World Health Organization, https://www.who.int/news/item/28-11-2024-second-meeting-of-the-international-health-regulations-(2005)-emergency-committee-regarding-the-upsurge-of-mpox-2024
{Excerpts}
The Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) is hereby transmitting the report of the second meeting of the International Health Regulations (2005) (IHR) Emergency Committee (Committee) regarding the upsurge of mpox 2024, held on Friday 22 November 2024, from 12:00 to 17:00 CET.
(…)
Conclusion
The Committee reiterated its concern regarding the continuing spread of MPXV and uncertainties ensuing, and the effectiveness and efficiency of the response at the local level. The Committee underscored the need for the sustained commitment by national authorities in focusing efforts and resources at the local level to interrupt MPXV transmission, as well as the role of coordinated international cooperation in supporting and complementing such efforts in a synergistic manner. Therefore, the Committee considers that the determination by the WHO Director-General that the upsurge of mpox still constitutes a PHEIC would be warranted.
The WHO Deputy Director-General expressed his gratitude to the Committee’s Officers, its Members and Advisor and closed the meeting.

"Wir bräuchten noch so 5 #Pandemien, dann wären wir #klimaneutral."
Diese sarkastische Bemerkung hab ich letzten im Umfeld der erforderlichen Absenkung von #CO2Emissionen gehört. 🤪
Die #WHO hat erstmals eine #Notzulassung für einen #Mpox Test der US-Firma #Abbott Molecular erteilt. Dieser soll in betroffenen Regionen, vor allem in #Afrika, helfen, das Virus schneller nachzuweisen.

"The emergence of a new clade of mpox, its rapid spread in eastern DRC, and the reporting of cases in several neighbouring countries are very worrying. On top of outbreaks of other mpox clades in DRC and other countries in Africa, it’s clear that a coordinated international response is needed to stop these outbreaks and save lives.” // Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus

In declaring PHEIC, Dr Tedros said, "Emergence of a new #clade of mpox, its rapid spread in eastern #DRC, & reporting of cases in several neighbouring countries are very worrying. On top of outbreaks of other mpox clades in DRC & other countries in #Africa, it’s clear that a coordinated #international response is needed to stop these outbreaks and save lives.”

WHO has just declared the rise in #mpox cases a public health emergency of international concern (#PHEIC). "The detection and rapid spread of a new clade of mpox in eastern DRC, its detection in neighboring countries that had not previously reported mpox, and the potential for further spread within Africa and beyond is very worrying",
WHO's director general Tedros said in the presser just now. -
>17k suspected #mpox cases & 517 deaths have been reported on the African continent so far this year, a 160% increase in cases compared to the same period last year, the #Africa #CDC said. A total of 13 countries have reported cases.
A different form of the mpox virus — clade llb - spread globally in 2022, largely through sexual contact….This prompted the #WHO to declare a #PublicHealth emergency then, which it ended 10 months later.

The outbreak in #Congo began w/the spread of an #endemic strain, known as #cladeI. But a new variant, #cladeIb, appears to spread more easily through routine close contact, including sexual contact.
