Summary
Mpox is surging with 21 confirmed cases in the UK — here’s what you need to know: symptoms include rash, fever, body aches, and swollen glands, often appearing on hands or genitals. While anyone can catch it, most cases are among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men — so the vaccine is targeted at those with multiple partners, group sex, or sex-on-premises venue attendance — plus staff at those venues. Spread happens via close contact, bodily fluids, or contaminated items. For most, it’s mild and self-limiting, but high-risk groups like the elderly, kids, and immunocompromised need extra caution. Get vaccinated if you’re eligible — before summer hits.
