摘　　要：In 2022,just before the COVID-19 pandemic ended,many countries noticed a viral monkeypox outbreak.Monkeypox virus,a zoonotic pathogen,causes a febrile illness in humans and resembles smallpox.Prevention strategies encompass vaccination,strict infection control measures,and avoiding contact with infected persons.As monkeypox and related poxviruses continue to pose challenges,ongoing surveillance,early diagnosis,prompt isolation,and effective control measures are crucial for limiting transmission and mitigating the impact of outbreaks on public health.This review provides valuable insights into the evolution of the monkeypox virus and its various modes of transmission,including postmortem transmission,and offers an overall perspective on the guidelines issued by the Government of India to prevent and effectively control the spread of this disease.
