The body’s battle with #mpox
How the #virus spreads, mutates, and attacks humans
The latest strain is a mutated version of clade I, a form of mpox spread by contact with infected animals that has been endemic in #Congo for decades.
You can see the contrast between those infected in the African region (men and women somewhat evenly) and the rest of the world (almost all men). The variant in Africa can spread through close contact.
