A previously unknown strain of mpox is spreading near DRC ’s border with Uganda , Burundi and Rwanda .
The number of cases we're seeing of this new strain is of significant concern.
People move across this border in very high numbers, and because of local poverty, remoteness by road and poor infrastructure, it makes it a very difficult place to support these cases.
There are limited resources to control this emergent strain and there are still many unknowns about its epidemiology.
We are also still struggling with surveillance of the outbreak, which has happened suddenly in highly remote areas of south Kivu, while the whole country is experiencing an mpox outbreak.
It is also really important to work to detect and then further understand the transmission of this virus.
