Expert: Monkeypox in Armenia cannot be ruled out
August 31, 2022 19:42
Given the intensity of communication with other countries, the penetration of monkeypox into Armenia is not ruled out. Nerses Grigoryan, epidemiologist of Armenian Health Ministry, told NEWS.am Medicine.
"Monkey pox has not yet been recorded in Armenia, but according to the WHO, there is such a risk," he added.
Grigoryan said preventive measures are mainly carried out by the Armenian Food Safety Inspection Authority.
"Earlier, regulations related to the control of animal imports at the border were adopted," he stressed.
More than 46,500 cases of monkeypox have been reported worldwide and more than a dozen deaths have been reported, according to WHO data for August 26.
