\n

An infectious diseases Expert, Dr Iorhen Akase, says there is the need for active surveillance and search for suspected cases of monkeypox in communities to reduce the spread of the disease.<\/p>\n<\/header>\n

\n

Akase, Head of Infectious Diseases Unit, Department of Medicine, Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LUTH)<\/strong><\/a>, made the plea in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Wednesday in Lagos.<\/p>\n

Monkeypox is a viral zoonosis (a virus transmitted to humans from animals), with symptoms similar to those seen in smallpox patients, although it is clinically less severe.<\/p>\n

It typically presents clinically with fever, rashes and swollen lymph nodes and may lead to a range of medical complications.<\/p>\n

Akase said that the identification of suspected and confirmed cases of monkeypox should extend beyond cases that present at hospitals for treatment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe say monkeypox is endemic in Africa, but we don\u2019t know the number of cases happening in Nigeria at the moment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not actively looking for the cases; looking for it means we have laboratory capacity and taking samples, which we are not doing, because someone has to pay for those samples to be tested.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince we know that the disease is endemic; that means it\u2019s going on in communities, but we aren\u2019t picking them.<\/p>\n

\u201cSurveillance goes beyond someone being sick and coming to the hospital for treatment.<\/p>\n

\u201dIt means, go into the communities, take samples from people who are well and unwell.<\/p>\n

\u201cIdentify the communities who have risk factors, identify the animals transmitting the virus,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

According to him, active surveillance will assist map out the hotspots, species in the country, population group affected and factors facilitating the spread in communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s the exposure pattern like? Is it among hunters, health workers, or laboratory workers? Who are those driving the transmission within communities?<\/p>\n

\u201cWithout these data, it would be difficult for the country to respond appropriately to the outbreak of this viral infection,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Akase said that COVID-19 had shown that infection anywhere puts the whole world at risk.<\/p>\n

He explained that countries in Europe and North America had also reported cases of monkeypox outbreaks.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of the reported cases did not have linkage to Africa or animals, but now through person to person exposure, including sexual intercourse.<\/p>\n

\u201cClearly, we should be concerned, not afraid; and know that we have to put structures in place to counter this outbreak,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He averred that the effect of the monkeypox outbreak extends beyond hospitalisation.<\/p>\n

Akase said that the impact would drain resources, put additional strain on health systems, travels and tourism, among others.<\/p>\n

The physician assured that monkeypox is not as fatal as COVID-19 and other viral infections.<\/p>\n

He, however, urged that measures should be taken to prevent infection from the virus.<\/p>\n

Akase said the measures include: Avoiding contact with animals that could harbour the virus, as well as any material that had been in contact with a sick animal.<\/p>\n

He also emphasised the importance of maintaining good hand hygiene practice to prevent infections.<\/p>\n

According to the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), from September 2017 to April 30, 2022, some 558 suspected cases of monkeypox were reported from 32 states in the country.<\/p>\n

Out of these, 241 were confirmed cases, and eight deaths were recorded.<\/p>\n

Also, 46 suspected cases were reported in 2022, of which 15 were confirmed from seven states, and no fatality had been recorded.<\/p>\n

According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), monkeypox is most common in remote parts of Central and West Africa and occasionally exported to other regions.<\/p>\n

Outside Africa, 20 countries have declared 237 confirmed and suspected cases of monkeypox and health authorities around the world have announced plans to contain the virus.<\/p>\n

WHO said vaccines used during the smallpox eradication programme provide protection against monkeypox, and one newly-developed vaccine had been approved for prevention of monkeypox.<\/p>\n

It said that the virus could be contained with the right response in countries outside of Africa where it is not usually detected.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
