Maurice, any comment for this?<g> Wis. Claims Monkeypox Spread From Person Wisconsin Says It May Have First Known U.S. Case of Monkeypox Spreading Person-To-Person The Associated Press ATLANTA June 12 — Health officials in Wisconsin said Thursday that a health care worker may have contracted monkeypox from a human patient in what would be the first case of the disease spreading from person to person in this country. Wisconsin state epidemiologist Jeff Davis said monkeypox virus had not yet been confirmed in the worker, but it was suspected and experts were testing tissue specimens. The worker is ill and has been isolated, state health officials said. Monkeypox is typically transmitted from animal to animal, but in rare cases it can pass from human to human, Davis said. A monkeypox outbreak in the Congo in 1996 and 1997, for example, grew through person-to-person transmission, he said. "In this case, there was no animal exposure," Davis said of the health care worker. "The only contact was with a human." abcnews.go.com
