Governments worldwide are intensifying surveillance and screening measures to contain the spread of mpox, following the World Health Organization's (WHO) declaration of the virus as a global health emergency. Kenya has ramped up monitoring and initiated contact tracing, especially after a suspected case in Kiambu. Airports in Bangladesh and Tunisia are employing thermal scanners and other preventive measures to detect potential mpox cases among travelers. China has announced it will screen people and goods entering the country for the next six months. The Africa CDC reported a significant increase in mpox cases and deaths, with children disproportionately affected in Congo. The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) has raised the risk level in Europe, anticipating more imported cases.
