AI overview

Mpox is a viral disease that spreads to humans and animals, causing symptoms like a blister-forming rash, fever, and swollen lymph nodes that typically resolve within a few weeks. While most cases are mild and resolve without treatment, the disease can be more severe in children, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems.
