> The United States’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has urged travelers to avoid close contact with sick people, including those with skin or genital lesions. It also said contact with wild animals (dead or live) like rodents and primates should be avoided.
> The US has one confirmed case so far –a Massachusetts man recently returned from Canada.
> Denmark has said it will provide vaccines to close contacts of those infected with monkeypox, the Danish Health Authority told public broadcaster DR on Tuesday.

The government said little about the patient but stressed authorities were investigating contacts and’taking all necessary measures’ to limit the spread. of monkeypox virus.
> Amid concerns, scientists do not expect the outbreak to evolve into a pandemic like Covid-19, given the virus does not spread as easily as SARS-COV-2.
