Hey Identifier,

Monkeypox is a rare disease caused by infection

 with the monkeypox virus. Monkeypox virus is part

 of the same family of viruses as variola virus, the virus that causes smallpox. Monkeypox symptoms are similar

 to smallpox symptoms, but milder, and monkeypox is rarely fatal. Monkeypox is not related to chickenpox.

Monkeypox was discovered

 in 1958 when two outbreaks of a pox-like disease occurred in colonies of monkeys kept for research. Despite

 being named “monkeypox,” the source of the disease remains unknown. However, African rodents and non-human primates (like monkeys) might harbor the virus and infect people.

The first human case of monkeypox was recorded in 1970. Prior to the 2022 outbreak, monkeypox had been reported in people in several central and western African countries. Previously, almost all monkeypox cases in people outside of Africa were linked to international travel to countries where the disease commonly occurs or through imported animals. These cases occurred on multiple continents.
