According to the Batut Institute for Public Health website, 17 cases of monkeypox were registered in Serbia from June 5 to August 23.
Men between the ages of 22 and 44 fell ill, according to reports.
20 cases were registered in Belgrade, and three in Vojvodina. All those infected have a typical clinical picture with the development of measles, fever and other signs of infection.
The first case of monkeypox in Serbia was registered on June 17. The infected patient arrived in Serbia from Germany and was treated at the hospital. The first case of this disease in Montenegro was reported on July 31. By the end of July, 10 cases were reported in Croatia, and 35 in Slovenia.
Worldwide, more than 18.000 cases of monkeypox have been reported in 78 countries, most of which are in Europe. So far, 98 percent of cases of infection have been confirmed in men who had sex with other men and outside African countries where the virus is endemic, the WHO announced.
On July 23, the World Health Organization declared the monkeypox epidemic a global health threat. This classification is the highest warning the WHO can issue and follows an increase in the number of cases worldwide.
Already on July 25, the Danish biotechnology company "Bavarian Nordik" announced that the European Commission had given permission for the Danish vaccine Imvanex to be placed on the market as protection against monkeypox, as recommended by the European Medicines Agency last week.
"The availability of an approved vaccine can significantly improve the preparedness of nations to combat emerging diseases, but only through investment and structured biological preparedness planning," said company CEO Paul Chaplin.
The US state of New York and San Francisco declared a state of emergency on July 29 due to the spread of monkeypox. New York State Governor Kathy Hochul said more than one in four cases of monkeypox in the United States have been reported in New York. Until then, 261 cases of monkeypox were recorded in San Francisco, while around 4.600 were registered across the US.
The first deaths outside Africa were reported by Brazil and Spain.
