Mpox alert

As Pakistan reports its fourth mpox case, complacency is not an option. With over 100,000 global cases and over 200 deaths, the situation is alarming. We must draw lessons from Covid-19 and raise awareness about mpox.

Nationwide campaigns are crucial to educate the public about its severity. Clear guidelines, support for private clinics, and international cooperation for affordable vaccines and supplies are vital. Collective action can prevent widespread devastation.
