The World Health Organization (WHO) declared monkeypox a public health emergency of international concern, its highest level of alert, Saturday.
“We have an outbreak that has spread rapidly through new modes of transmission about which we understand too little and which meets the criteria in the international health regulations,” WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said at a media briefing Saturday in Geneva. “For all of these reasons, I have decided that the global monkeypox outbreak represents a public health emergency of international concern.”
