The World Health Organization declared the global monkeypox outbreak a public health emergency of international concern in July 2022. In response, the American Academy of Dermatology and International League of Dermatological Societies expanded the existing COVID-19 Dermatology Registry to become the "AAD/ILDS Dermatology COVID-19, Monkeypox, and Emerging Infections Registry." The goal of the registry is to rapidly collate cases of monkeypox and other emerging infections and enable prompt dissemination of findings to front-line healthcare workers and other members of the medical community. The registry is now accepting reports of monkeypox cases and cutaneous reactions to monkeypox/smallpox vaccines. The success of this collaborative effort will depend on active case entry by the global dermatology community.
世界卫生组织于 2022 年 7 月宣布全球猴痘疫情为国际关注的突发公共卫生事件。为此,美国皮肤病学会和国际皮肤科学会联盟将现有的 COVID-19 皮肤病登记处扩大为“美国皮肤病学会/国际皮肤科学会联盟皮肤病 COVID-19、猴痘和新兴传染病登记处”。该登记处的目标是迅速整理猴痘和其他新发传染病的病例,并迅速向一线医护人员和其他医学界成员传播调查结果。该登记处现在正在接受猴痘病例和猴痘/天花疫苗引起的皮肤反应的报告。这项合作努力的成功与否将取决于全球皮肤科界积极参与病例报告。
