Viral disease: Sweden: Monkeypox classified as dangerous to the public

“The classification makes it possible to take measures to prevent infection in order to prevent further spread,” explained Social Affairs Minister Lena Hallengren.

“It is also important that the information reaches risk groups and that the health services are prepared to treat and follow up suspected cases.” In Sweden, the first case of monkeypox was registered in the Stockholm area on Thursday. An infection was detected in Germany for the first time on Friday.
