La viruela del mono es una enfermedad transmisible emergente causada por un virus que se transmite a los seres humanos a partir de animales infectados, generalmente roedores. Puede contagiarse a otras personas, pero la transmisión de persona a persona por sí sola no es capaz de mantener un brote. ...La presentación clínica es similar a la observada en el pasado con la viruela, pero menos grave. La viruela fue erradicada en el mundo en 1980; sin embargo, la viruela del mono sigue produciéndose esporádicamente en partes de África Central y Occidental, cerca de las selvas tropicales.

Este curso ofrece una introducción general a la viruela del mono y está dirigido al personal sanitario responsable de la prevención y el control de la viruela del mono.

also a disease of poverty. It still survives in poverty-stricken, remote areas where there
is little or no safe water or sanitation, and health care is scarce or non-existent. For
a variety of complex reasons, many of which are addressed in this book, the disease
is particularly prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa, and persists in certain areas of rural
China. This concern for human behaviour in an environment of poverty echoes the
concerns of the new research priority for “diseases of poverty” identified by the
Special Programme for Research & Training in Tropical Diseases.
