Monkeypox in Africa
The world is not alien to the concept of a lethal disease and how it spreads throughout the globe to morph into a pandemic, wreaking havoc in every country.

The viral disease has been recorded to either originate or begin with a few hundred cases in May 2022. It has been predominantly active throughout Europe but is also causing widespread worry in parts of America and Africa. As of recent, a total of 12,590 cases and 12 deaths have been confirmed, a staggering sum which only grows if not curbed through the right measures and precautions. Even in India, it has begun as the first case occurred in a 35-year-old man in Kerala. The World Health Organisation has dubbed it an “evolving health threat”.
