On August 14, 2024, the Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO) declared that the increasing outbreaks of mpox (formerly monkeypox) should be regarded as an international public health emergency due to the growing number of cases in endemic and non-endemic geographical areas, and increasing disease severity. The latest update from the WHO and the alerts given regarding the status of mpox follows an upsurge in the incidence and severity of mpox in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and an increasing number of African countries, with spread to other continents and countries This Editorial aims to provide an update on the current status of mpox and includes reasons for the increasing global concerns for the spread of the mpox virus (MPXV).
