What is monkey acne? How did it spread? Wu Zunyou interpretation

The main source of infection caused by monkey acne spread is rodent animals infected with monkey acne viruses and primates including monkeys, chimpanzees, people, etc.

The virus invades the human body through the mucous membrane and damaged skin. People are mainly infected by contacting the infection of animal lesions, blood, other body fluids, or infected by the infected animals. People are mainly transmitted through close contact, and items contaminated by viruses may also be infected, and they can also be transmitted vertically through the placenta. Flight communication is yet to be further confirmed, but it will not be transmitted through gas solution.

Monkey acne history is not a sexually transmitted disease, but in Europe and the United States reporting cases, about 95%of cases are infected with monkey acne through sexual behavior. Among them, the most risk of monkey acne infection in male contacts.

All children's cases increase. Children's diagnosis of infection of monkey acne virus means that anyone may infected monkey acne virus due to close contact between the skin. As far as children are concerned, infection with intimate contact such as hugs, and sharing towels, bedding, cups, and tableware such as shared towels.

What are the symptoms of monkey acne?

After the infection of monkey acne, the latent period of the latent period of about 2 to 3 weeks, with an average of 12 days, and then high fever, headache, back pain, systemic discomfort, cough, lymph nodes, occasionally abdominal pain. During the course of the disease, complications such as bacterial infections, sepsis, lung infections, and respiratory distress syndrome can also be complicated.

1. Typical symptoms

The clinical manifestations of human monkey acne are similar to smallpox, but the general symptoms are mild. The course of disease can be divided into aggression and skin rash periods.

1. Invasion period: characteristics are fever, severe headache, lymph nodes, lymph node swelling, back pain, muscle pain, and extremely weak.

2. Skin rash period: rash can be used throughout the body, 95%of the rash occurs on the face, 75%of the case rash on the palms of both hands and feet, and the body parts are almost at the same time. For about 10 days, the rash developed from mosquito to blisters and pustules, and finally formed a shell. For 3 weeks, the shell falls off and disappears.

2. Other symptoms

The lesion damage part of the whole body is from several to thousands of different places. 70%of the cases damage the oral mucosa, 30%damage the cheeks, and 20%damage the eyes, face and cornea. Some patients can develop severe lymph nodes before the rash occurs, and the occurrence of lymph node lesions can help the diagnosis of monkey acne. Because the lymphadenopathy disease does not occur in smallpox and chickenpox, the symptoms of monkey acne can usually last for 14 to 21 days.

Severe of monkey acne

Monkey acne is a self -limited disease. Most infected people recover within a few weeks. Severe cases are common in young children and low immune functions, and death may occur.

A comprehensive analysis of a historical data shows that the mortality rate of monkey acne is about 8.7%, of which the mortality rate of monkey acne disease is 10.6%(95%CI: 8.4%– 13.3%), and the mortality rate of Monkey acne disease in West Africa is 3.6% (95%CI: 1.7%-6.8%). The cause of the mortality of African African acne disease in the west is still unclear.

In 2022, the mortality rate of the case of monkey acne cases was about 0.03%, and the five cases of death were reported in Africa. At present, the low -disease death rate observed is because of the different virus strains, or the good physical fitness of the people in Europe and the United States, or a timely treatment of medical services, and it is yet to be further studied.
