The mpox virus is seeing a resurgence in several countries, with new cases reported in Uganda and Gabon. Uganda has confirmed two additional mpox infections, bringing the total to four, all identified as clade 1b. Health authorities in Uganda are actively monitoring the situation and implementing measures to prevent further transmission. The World Health Organization (WHO) is providing support to affected regions. Gabon has reported its first mpox case, highlighting the virus's spread to new countries. This raises concerns about potential community transmission, especially given the virus's presence in neighboring regions. Misinformation and confusion about the virus's spread and its different clades are prevalent, complicating public health efforts.
