The World Health Organization (WHO) called the risk of the monkeypox virus becoming "established" in non-endemic countries "real." There are 40 reported cases in the U.S.
"But, that scenario can be prevented," he noted. "WHO urges the affected countries to make every effort to identify all cases and contacts to control this outbreak and prevent onward monkeypox spread."
The United Nations health agency said that there have been more than 1,000 reported cases across 29 countries in the current outbreak outside countries in Africa, where the disease most commonly spreads.
