Monkeypox cases triple across the globe but WHO insists risk to the public 'remains low'

The World Health Organisation has confirmed that 780 cases of monkeypox have been reported since May 13, 2022.

These infections have been reported across Europe and in some American states as well as a small number of cases being reported in Mexico, Argentina, Morocco, and the United Arab Emirates.

That shows an estimated tripling of the 257 cases it reported just one week ago on May 29, 2022.
