Kerala’s Health Minister Veena George Told Reporters
The man’s relatives informed authorities the day before that he had tested positive before coming back to India, Kerala’s health minister Veena George told reporters on Sunday.
The government of India’s federal health ministry declined to comment on the fatality other than to note that a task force of senior officials had been established to keep track of monkeypox cases in the nation, where at least five infections have been reported by local media.
18,000 Cases of Monkeypox
The majority of the 18,000 cases of monkeypox, which were reported by 78 nations late last month, were in Europe, according to the WHO.
It claims that the monkeypox virus primarily affects central and west Africa and causes a sickness with milder symptoms than smallpox. Animals can also spread sickness to people.
Contact with bodily fluids, sores on the skin or on internal mucosal surfaces, such as those in the mouth or throat, respiratory droplets, and infected objects are all ways that human-to-human transmission can occur.
