Monkeypox is an uncommon illness caused by infection with the monkeypox virus. The monkeypox virus is part of the same family of viruses as the variola virus, the virus that causes smallpox. Monkeypox symptoms are comparable to smallpox symptoms but milder, and monkeypox is seldom deadly. Monkeypox is not related to chickenpox.
As the epidemic has risen, so too has the misunderstanding regarding the virus, how it spreads, and who is now at high risk of being infected. Can you catch it, for instance, on a crowded bus or airplane?
From trying on things at a thrift shop?
From a bathroom counter?
Is everyone at the same risk?
Several myths and misunderstandings have sprouted up around these questions. And there's a lot of contradicting information and recommendations.
This is to clarify a couple of those misconceptions and to explain some new facts about this epidemic, which begins to create a better picture of who urgently needs the vaccination right now and who doesn't.
