Community transmission of monkeypox in the United Kingdom, April to May 2022

Roberto Vivancos et al.

Summary: Between 7 and 25 May, 86 cases of monkeypox have been confirmed in the UK, with only one case known to have traveled to a monkeypox virus endemic country. The majority of the cases were males, among which 66 reported being gay, bisexual, or men who have sex with men. This is the first sustained human-to-human transmission of monkeypox in the UK, occurring through close contacts, including sexual networks. Ongoing efforts are being made to improve case identification and prevent further transmission.

Retrospective detection of asymptomatic monkeypox virus infections among male sexual health clinic attendees in Belgium

Irith De Baetselier et al.

Summary: The magnitude of the 2022 monkeypox virus outbreak has exceeded any previous outbreak, and undiagnosed infections may be driving the epidemic. A study found four men attending a Belgian sexual health clinic to be infected with monkeypox. One man had a painful rash while the other three were asymptomatic, but their infections were confirmed through clinical examination. These findings suggest that undiagnosed cases of monkeypox could contribute to the transmission and scale of the 2022 outbreak.
