About Session
Mpox, also known as monkeypox, is an infectious disease caused by the monkeypox virus, a member of the Orthopoxvirus genus. A distinctive feature of the disease is the development of a rash that progresses through stages from macules to papules, vesicles, pustules, and scabs. Mpox is transmitted through direct contact with infectious lesions, body fluids, or contaminated materials, and can also spread through respiratory droplets. Effective management of Mpox involves supportive care and, in some cases, antiviral treatment. Preventive measures include isolation of infected individuals, use of personal protective equipment, and vaccination for high-risk populations. Enhance your understanding of Mpox with our expert session led by Dr. Trupti Gilada, who will provide comprehensive insights into the disease's clinical features, diagnosis, and management strategies.
