    Spain, according to a Reuters tally.

    Cases caused by the form of the virus now circulating in the United States
    – Clade IIb – are rarely fatal, although people with weakened immune
    systems may be more likely to get seriously ill or die, Pauley said.

    Anyone can become infected with monkeypox, which spreads through close >contact with an infected person. However, nearly all of the more than

    bisexual and other men who have sex with men, according to the CDC.
