MonkeyPV Detect Reagent For Human Use With Lyophilized Powder Pandemic Virus

Product Description:

In 1958, the Mpox virus was first discovered in research monkeys, so the disease was named "monkeypox". In order to avoid misunderstanding or discrimination about the disease or specific ethnic groups, it was also announced on February 1, 2024. Renamed "Mpox". The earliest case of human infection with Mpox virus was a 9-month-old boy in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in 1970. Since then, cases have been reported in remote areas near tropical rainforests in Central and West Africa. Mpoxvirus belongs to the family Poxviridae and the genus Orthopoxvirus. It is mainly transmitted to humans by rodents and primates and is a zoonotic disease. Mpox virus can be divided into the first branch (I) virus and the second branch (II) virus. The second branch (II) virus includes two sub-clades, IIa and IIb, which are the main circulating strains in the current global epidemic. The first branch of the virus is more likely to spread and is more serious than the second branch of the virus. The fatality rate of the first branch is about 10%, while the fatality rate of the second branch is about 1%. However, according to international literature reports, from the beginning of the epidemic in May 2022 to 2024 At the end of February this year, among the more than 94,707 confirmed cases of Mpox infection worldwide, about 181 people died, and most of the symptoms were mild. Taking the United States as an example, among about 32,000 cases, 58 died (the fatality rate was 0.2%). With the eradication of smallpox in 1980 and the subsequent cessation of smallpox vaccination, Mpox has become the most serious orthopoxvirus infection in existence.

How do humans become infected with viruses?

Human-to-human transmission: Mpox can be transmitted from person to person through close contact with the rashes, scabs, and body fluids of confirmed cases, such as through close sexual contact, including oral, anal or vaginal intercourse, or contact with the genitals of a person with Mpox (penis, testicles, labia and vagina) or anus, hugging, massaging and kissing patients with acne, as well as prolonged face-to-face contact, etc. Infection caused by contact with respiratory secretions of an infected person, damaged skin or mucous membranes, or contaminated items. Sexual contact is the main transmission route of this epidemic. Droplet transmission is more likely to occur in long-term face-to-face contact. Therefore, medical staff who perform medical measures that produce aerosol particles and do not wear appropriate personal protection, and those who are intimate Only those who come into contact with family members who live with them are at greater risk of infection. If the mother is infected with the Mpox virus, it can be transmitted vertically to the fetus through the placenta, or it can be transmitted through contact during labor.

Zoonotic infection: infection through direct contact with the blood, body fluids, damaged skin or mucous membranes of infected animals. Eating meat from infected animals is also a risk factor.

Technical Parameters:

The symptoms of M. acne are usually mild for most people, and symptoms last for 14 to 21 days before clearing up. The second branch (II) Mpox virus strain, which is currently the main epidemic strain in the global epidemic, has a fatality rate of about 1%. However, according to international literature reports, from the beginning of the epidemic in May 2022 to the end of February 2024, Mpox infection was confirmed globally. Among the more than 94,707 cases, about 181 people died, and the vast majority of the symptoms were mild; taking the United States as an example, among about 32,000 cases, 58 died (the fatality rate was 0.2%); but the first branch (I) virus strain The fatality rate is about 10%. People with low immune function, pregnant women and young children should be especially careful after infection.
