Africa ‘is no longer facing mpox

ADDIS ABABA: Africa is no longer in the grip of a public health emergency over mpox, though the viral infection “remains endemic in several settings,” the head of the region’s disease monitoring centers said on Saturday. The announcement by Jean Kaseya, director general of the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, comes after the World Health Organization in September said mpox was no longer a global health emergency.
