Die Pockenkrankheit #MPox - übertragen durch Affen und Nagetiere - trat ursprünglich in West- und Zentralafrika auf. Vor 3 Jahren mehrten sich dann weltweit Fälle: Das Virus wird nun auch von Mensch zu Mensch übertragen. Auch durch eine international engere Zusammenarbeit kann das Virus bisher gut in Schach gehalten werden. Das liegt auch am neu gegründeten @WHO -Pandemie-Hub. Ein #Nano-Bericht zeigt, was dort passiert: https://www.3sat.de/wissen/nano/250520-who-zentrum-berlin-pandemie-risikomanagement-global-daten-nano-100.html?at_medium=Social%20Media&at_campaign=Mastodon&at_specific=3sat

For so many people, it's hard to fathom how deadly pathogens can cross from animal hosts to human hosts. I think it's important to point out cases of #zoonosis where sturdy work has been done to show potential links from a likely reservoir. This is even more important since our last pandemic. If the wider public saw more examples of zoonoses, then perhaps this major source of emerging human pathogens would not continue to be enigmatic to the lay public.

Researchers have been trying for a long time to nail down where in nature #mpox lurks.
Now they appear to have caught the virus that causes mpox in the act of spilling over from squirrels to monkeys.
“This study is a landmark contribution to understanding mpox dynamics and guiding proactive prevention efforts across Africa and beyond”, says biologist Yap Boum.
