Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am the mother of a four-year-old. I am too anxious about my child's health. I want him to stay healthy throughout his life. Since new viruses are taking turns, I am just curious. I was reading an article about the monkeypox virus, and I have a few questions about it.
Please help.
Thank you.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Currently, there are no cases in our country, hence fewer chances of getting infected with the monkeypox virus.
However, avoiding direct contact with infected people and practicing hand hygiene protects you from getting it. Usually, it is a less severe disease, with complete recovery in two to four weeks.
I hope that you get your answer.
Please let me know if you need any help.
Thank you.
