Dear Reader, Although the COVID-19 pandemic is still a huge cause for worry for governments and populations like, a new threat is raising its head across various countries in the form of monkeypox. Till date, more than 5000 monkeypox cases have been reported from 51 countries worldwide. However, more worrying and abnormal is the fact that these countries seem to have been affected for the first time. More than 90% of the infections are occurring in 31 of the European countries. The United Kingdom has the biggest monkeypox outbreak beyond the African countries, where it is known since decades. British officials note that the disease is spreading in defined sexual networks of gay, bisexual, or men who have sex with men. A recent study on the changing epidemiology of human monkeypox published in PLOS highlights “the mounting concerns about the geographical spread and further resurgence of monkeypox".
