Uphando lokukhawuleza inkawu (MPXV) ukuqhambuka kwavela ngo-Oktobha 2023 kwingingqi yaseKamituga yaseDemocratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) ibonise ukuba ukudibana ngokwesondo kwakuyindlela ephambili yosulelo losulelo. Oku kubalelwa kumnombo owahlukileyo weMPXV Clade Ib, owahlukileyo kulandelelwano lwangaphambili. clade Ndihlala e-DRC. Uhlobo lotshintsho beluphakamisa usulelo lwamva nje olusuka emntwini luye emntwini.
Amazwe amaninzi aseYurophu anike ingxelo ngokuqhubekayo ukwanda kwenani losulelo lwemonkeypox ukusukela ngoMeyi ka-2022.
