Abstract
Human mpox (formerly monkeypox) has historically received little attention until 2022, when we saw a reemergence beyond endemic countries [ 1 , 2 ]. In this global outbreak, mpox caused by Clade IIb monkeypox virus (MPXV) was introduced to countries that had never experienced mpox or had collectively reported fewer than ten imported cases, with few secondary cases.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
