    CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WCCU/WICS) — The Champaign-Urbana Public Health
    District (C-UPHD) and Illinois Department of Public Health
    (IDPH), announced today a single presumptive monkeypox case in
    an adult male Champaign County resident with recent travel
    history to Chicago.

    Initial testing was completed Friday, July 8, 2022, at an IDPH
    laboratory, and confirmatory testing for monkeypox is pending at
    the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Based on
    initial epidemiologic characteristics and the positive
    orthopoxvirus result at IDPH, health officials consider this a
    probable monkeypox infection.

    C-UPHD and IDPH are working closely with the CDC to identify
    individuals with whom the patient may have been in contact while
    they were infectious. This contact tracing approach is
    appropriate given the nature and transmission of the virus. The
    person did not require hospitalization and is isolating at home
    in good condition. To protect patient confidentiality, no
    further details relating to the patient will be disclosed.

    The case remains isolated and at this time there is no
    indication there is a great risk of extensive local spread of
    the virus, as monkeypox does not spread as easily as the COVID-
    19 virus. Person-to-person transmission is possible through
    close physical contact with body fluids, monkeypox sores, items
    that have been contaminated with fluids or sores (clothing,
    bedding, etc.), or through respiratory droplets following
    prolonged face-to-face contact. Symptoms include a rash that can
    look like pimples or blisters that appears on the face, inside
    the mouth, and on other parts of the body, like the hands, feet,
    chest, genitals, or anus.

    Monkeypox is a rare, but potentially serious viral illness,
    which belongs to the Orthopoxvirus family, and typically begins
    with flu-like symptoms and swelling of the lymph nodes, and
    progresses to a rash on the face and body. Most infections last
    two to four weeks. Monkeypox is typically endemic to parts of
    central and west Africa, and people can be exposed through bites
    or scratches from rodents and small mammals, preparing wild
    game, or having contact with an infected animal or possibly
    animal products.

    Beginning in 2022, multiple cases of monkeypox have been
    reported in several countries that do not normally report
    monkeypox, including the United States. On May 18, 2022, a U.S.
    resident

    tested positive for monkeypox after returning to the U.S. from
    Canada. As of July 11, 2022, the CDC reports 767 confirmed cases
    of orthopox/monkeypox across multiple states

    (https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/response/2022/index.html
    ). Anyone, regardless of sexual orientation, can spread
    monkeypox, but early data from this outbreak suggest that gay,
    bisexual, and other men who have sex with men make up a high
    number of initial cases.

    The CDC is urging healthcare providers in the United States to
    be alert for patients with rash illnesses consistent with
    monkeypox, regardless of travel history or specific risk factors
    for monkeypox, and regardless of gender or sexual orientation.

    People who have a new or unexplained rash, sores, or symptoms,
    or have a confirmed exposure should see a healthcare provider,
    remind them that the virus is circulating in the community, and
    avoid sex or being intimate with anyone until they have been
    seen. If a person or their partner has monkeypox, they should
    follow the treatment and prevention recommendations outlined by
    their healthcare provider and avoid sex or being intimate with
    anyone until all sores have healed or have a fresh layer of skin
    formed.

    Suspected cases may present with early flu-like symptoms and
    progress to lesions that may begin on one site on the body and
    spread to other parts. Illness could be clinically confused with
    a sexually transmitted infection like syphilis or herpes, or
    with varicella zoster virus.
