New York City recommended residents use masks after a monkeypox case was found in the city. Experts fear the disease could impact sexual health.
Monkeypox cases are on the rise in Europe and other parts of the world as experts in Spain suspect that a pride parade could have been the superspreader event for the disease. The World Health Organisation confirmed 92 cases in 12 countries and doctors are also assessing that the disease could have a massive impact on the sexual health of the people. In the recent outbreak, which started in the UK, cases have been found in Spain, Portugal, Italy, the US, Canada, Israel, France, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, Italy, Belgium, and Australia. NYC has also asked the residents to use masks to prevent people from the disease after a monkeypox case was found in the city as the disease can easily spread from close contact with the infected person. The person, who is from New York City, is isolated after showing symptoms of the virus.
