The first human case of monkeypox was recorded in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) in 1970 during a period of intense efforts to eradicate smallpox.
Since April 2022, an unusual increase in monkeypox in humans has been reported in several Central and West African countries. At the time, the WHO classified this as a cause for concern.
Monkeypox begins with fever, headache, muscle pain and exhaustion.
The difference between the symptoms of smallpox and monkeypox is
that monkeypox swells the lymph nodes. The incubation period is usually 7 to 14 days but can range from 5 to 21 days . Within 1 to 3 days (sometimes longer) of the onset of the fever, the patient develops a rash, often starting on the face and then spreading to other parts of the body. The disease
usually takes 2 to 4 weeks.

The Monkeypox Antigen Rapid Test Cassette is a test phase immunochromatographic assay for the rapid, qualitative and differential detection of monkeypox virus antigen from a nasal/pharyngeal swab. This test provides only a preliminary test result. Therefore, any reactive specimen using the Rapid Monkeypox Antigen Test Cassette must be confirmed with alternative test methods and clinical findings.
