Abstract

Monkeypox is caused by a rare virus (MPXV) which belongs to the genus Orthopoxvirus, family Poxviridae. Our understanding of the sylvatic hosts of the virus has been limited and warrants detailed investigation. In the previous three decades, monkeypox was considered to be a controllable disease. This disease has been endemic in certain African regions for decades.
