Abstract

In 1958, the first case human infected by Poxivirus was detected in Democratic Republic of the Con­go. This virus can produce after an incubation period of 5 to 21 a large spectrum of symptoms which can be severe, and, in many cases, medical care is necessary. The research of Monkeypox requires spe­cial laboratory conditions. Different tests can help to identify this virus in human specimens, like PCR and ELISA. Vaccinia vaccines prepared from viral variants can offer protection against monkeypox.
