The WHO have expressed concern around vulnerable groups as Monkeypox continues to spread. High-risk groups include children, the immunocompromised and pregnant women.
The latest figures have shown 1,235 cases across the UK, and 27 of those have been recorded in Scotland. Ahead of a summer of large gatherings following eased Covid restrictions the WHO has shared it's concerns for those at a higher risk.
WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has said: "I'm concerned about sustained transmission because it would suggest the virus establishing itself and it could move into high-risk groups including children, the immunocompromised and pregnant women."
