On July 23, World Health Organisation Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus declared the monkeypox outbreak a “public health emergency of international concern” – the highest global alert level for a disease outbreak. Australia’s Chief Medical Officer Paul Kelly followed by declaring monkeypox as a “communicable disease incident of national significance.”
We’re joined by Dr Paul Griffin, Infectious Diseases Physician and Microbiologist, University of Queensland, who takes us through who’s at risk and why.
