Countries with confirmed cases of new mpox strain


Oct 22 (Reuters) - India became the third country outside of Africa to confirm a case of the clade Ib form of the mpox virus that has triggered global concern as it seems to be spreading quickly and little is known about the strain.
The World Health Organization declared mpox a global public health emergency for the second time in two years in August, following an outbreak of the viral infection in the Democratic Republic of Congo that has spread to neighboring countries.
