Abstract

The monkeypox virus, which is a member of the orthopoxy virus family, can lead to a number of consequences, including sepsis, encephalitis, keratitis, bronchopneumonia, and superimposed infections. It can also produce fever, lethargy, headaches, lymphadenopathy, myalgia, and rashes. The World Health Organization reported two occurrences of monkeypox in the United Kingdom in May 2022, but did not have a complete understanding of the epidemiological connections or the possibility of regional or international transmission of this illness. New instances have been reported in various parts of the world during the past few weeks, prompting worries about the state of the global health crisis and alertness regarding the behavior of novel viral strains. 2103 laboratory cases reported and one probable incidence, which also included one death, had been recorded to WHO as of June 15th. This article's goal was to review the literature in order to get greater knowledge about the illness, which would aid in clinical practice and public health education.
