Kerala has confirmed its first case of MPox, marking the second case in India. The patient, a 38-year-old man from the UAE, displayed symptoms after being put under observation and has been isolated in a state-run hospital. Meanwhile, Malaysia reported its first MPox case of the year, bringing the total to 10 since last year, with the current patient exhibiting mild symptoms and having no recent international travel history. Both countries are implementing measures to monitor contacts and prevent further spread. The World Health Organization has declared MPox a global public health emergency, highlighting the concerns surrounding outbreaks and the virus's potential severity in vulnerable populations.
