Thailand has reported its first suspected case of a new and potentially more dangerous strain of mpox, which the World Health Organization has declared a global public health emergency. The case involves a 66-year-old European man who recently traveled from Africa, specifically the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where there is an ongoing outbreak. Thai health officials are currently awaiting test results to confirm the strain, identified as Clade 1. This marks Thailand and Sweden as the first countries outside of Africa to detect cases of the Clade 1b variant.
