Following the report of a non-travel-associated cluster of monkeypox cases by the United Kingdom in May 2022, 41 countries across the WHO European Region have reported 21,098 cases and two deaths by 23 August 2022. Nowcasting suggests a plateauing in case notifications. Most cases (97%) are MSM, with atypical rash-illness presentation. Spread is mainly through close contact during sexual activities. Few cases are reported among women and children. Targeted interventions of at-risk groups are needed to stop further transmission.
2022 年 5 月，英国报告了一起非旅行相关猴痘病例集群后，截至 2022 年 8 月 23 日，世卫组织欧洲区域的 41 个国家共报告了 21098 例病例和 2 例死亡。实时预测表明病例通报数量趋于平稳。大多数病例（97%）为男男性行为者，伴有不典型皮疹疾病表现。传播主要通过性活动中的密切接触。在妇女和儿童中报告的病例很少。需要对高危人群采取有针对性的干预措施，以阻止进一步传播。
