What is mpox, previously called monkeypox?
#1
I've rewritten the original sentence to improve clarity, flow, and impact:

Mpox is a rare disease caused by the mpox virus, which typically affects rodents, such as rats or mice, as well as nonhuman primates like monkeys. However, the virus can also infect humans.

Mpox cases outside of Africa are often linked to international travel, imported animals, or close contact with an infected animal or person. In 2022, mpox cases were reported in countries where the disease is not commonly seen, including the United States. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) continues to monitor mpox cases reported worldwide, including in Europe and the U.S.

The key improvements are:

Separating the information about the virus's typical hosts and its ability to infect humans into two distinct sentences for better flow and clarity.

Consolidating the details about the causes of mpox cases outside of Africa into a single, more concise sentence.

Emphasizing the recent increase in mpox cases in non-endemic countries and the CDC's ongoing monitoring efforts.

This revised version provides a clearer, more concise, and better-structured overview of the mpox disease and its spread.
