Ireland confirms: First case of monkey pox | BT Abroad - www.bt.dk Ireland has registered its first case of monkey pox. The infected person is not being treated in a hospital, but at the same time one more possible case is being investigated, writes the Irish media. Right now, Irish health authorities are in the process of tracing close contacts to the one confirmed infected. It comes as no surprise to authorities that monkey pox has now reached the green island off the UK. Several cases have been registered in the United Kingdom and Europe in particular. But the WHO is so far optimistic that the disease will not run amok. "If we do the right thing now, we can probably easily keep it under control," Sylvie Briand, director of the World Health Organization for Global Contingency Planning, said on Saturday. At the same time, however, Sylvie Briand says that we may have only seen the tip of the iceberg in terms of cases of monkey pox. In Denmark, two cases of monkey pox have been detected, according to SSI. Both cases are related to travel to Spain. Unlike corona, monkey cups do not infect through the air. In contrast, infection requires close personal contact, according to experts.
