Two additional instances of Mpox have been identified within the nation. Health Minister Joe Phaahla will provide information regarding strategies to mitigate further transmission. The most recent case involves a 39-year-old man admitted to Addington Hospital in Durban. Another case was uncovered at St. Augustine Hospital, also situated in Durban. In the previous month, two cases were documented in KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng. The NICD urges individuals exhibiting symptoms to undergo testing.
