A man who caught monkeypox has revealed how it left him feeling like a “walking zombie” after nearly collapsing on the street. Wesley Williams, 34, became sick one day after visiting a sauna whilst on a trip to London but initially thought it was just tiredness.
He broke out in spots and blotches 30 minutes into his shift as a waiter at a shopping centre restaurant, before struggling to stand up while serving customers.
Wesley said: “I was completely shattered. I was so knackered I couldn’t stand up properly. I was a walking zombie and I really could not move. I had to sit down to take food orders.”
