So far 219 cases of monkey pox have been reported in 19 countries, except African countries where the disease is endemic, according to updated data published by the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC).

In addition to 11 African countries, three countries have currently registered the largest number of confirmed cases: the United Kingdom, the first country to identify the first cases in early May (71), Spain (51) and Portugal (37), according to ECDC.

This is the first time that monkey pox has been reported in Europe without contact with West or Central Africa, where the disease is endemic.

"Most cases are young and gay. "No casualties have been reported so far," said the Stockholm-based ECDC.

Europe has registered the largest number of cases with 191, including 118 in EU countries. Canada (15), the United States (9), Australia (2), Israel (1) and the United Arab Emirates (1) are the six non-Europeans where monkey pox has been reported.

The total number of cases detected by the ECDC on Monday has increased almost fivefold since the first report on May 20th. On Monday, the ECDC considered the probability of transmission in the general population to be low, but warned that those who had more than one partner - regardless of their sexual orientation - were more at risk.

Monkey pox is a virus that usually causes fever and skin rashes, similar to those of chicken pox. It is considered a mild illness and usually heals in two to four weeks without the need for any treatment.

The most common mode of transmission is through contact with an infected person or sexual intercourse. The virus can also be transmitted by respiratory droplets.
