Tanzania issues precautionary notice over monkeypox

Tanzania’s Ministry of Health issued an alert over the monkeypox disease that has affected various African and global countries.


On Wednesday, the ministry shared a poster with information on the disease symptoms and also urging the public to be cautious.


Symptoms include swollen lymph nodes, fever, headaches, and muscle and body aches. The Health Ministry urged anyone with these symptoms to go to health centers for proper diagnosis and treatment.


No case of the disease has been reported in Tanzania, but cases have been reported in Europe in the past few weeks with the World Health Organization (WHO) raising the alarm on increasing monkeypox cases around the world.

Tanzania’s Deputy Minister for Health, Godwin Mollel, said in a statement that the public needs to take precautions against monkeypox and other infectious diseases.
