A single case of mpox – formerly known as monkeypox – linked to the recent outbreak in parts of Africa, has been detected in the UK.
It is part of the Clade 1b outbreak, which appears to spread more easily between people.
Mpox was declared a global health emergency by the World Health Organization in the summer.
The UK patient had recently been on holiday in at least one of the affected countries in Africa and began to feel sick 24 hours after flying home.
