WHO declares monkeypox an international health emergency.

The World Health Organization has declared monkeypox a global health emergency, meaning the UN health agency considers the outbreak an "extraordinary event" and the disease is at risk of spreading across more borders. It also gives monkeypox the same distinction as the COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing effort to eradicate polio.

Many scientists doubt the declaration will help curb the epidemic, as developed countries recording the most recent cases are already moving quickly to stop it.

Last week, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus described the recent monkeypox epidemic identified in more than 40 countries, mainly in Europe, as "unusual and worrying". Monkeypox has sickened people for decades in central and west Africa, where one version of the disease kills up to 10 percent of people. In the epidemic beyond Africa so far, no deaths have been reported.

To date, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has confirmed more than 3,300 cases of monkeypox in 42 countries where the virus has not been normally seen. More than 80 percent of the cases are in Europe. Meanwhile, Africa has already seen more than 1,400 cases this year, including 62 deaths.

"There may be legitimate reasons why the WHO only sounded the alarm when monkeypox spread to rich countries, but to poor countries, that seems like a double standard," Fidler said. He said the global community was still struggling to ensure the world's poor were vaccinated against the Coronavirus and that it was unclear whether Africans wanted monkeypox vaccines, given competing priorities such as malaria and HIV.

 "Unless African governments specifically ask for vaccines, it might be a bit condescending to send them because it's in the West's interest to prevent monkeypox from being exported," Fidler said.
