Stages of virus spread:

Monkeypox virus spreads from animal to human through direct contact with any animal that has been bitten. Contact with body fluids, including blood and saliva from infected animals, can transmit the virus to humans, as can eating uncooked infected meat.

Human-to-human transmission occurs through direct contact with droplets from coughing, sneezing, rashes, pus, and other infectious body fluids, which tend to come from sharing items.
