A World Health Organization official stressed on Tuesday that mpox, regardless of whether it is the new or old strain, is not the new COVID, as authorities know how to control its spread.

SIGA Technologies’ TPOXX did not outperform placebo at resolving lesions in patients with clade I mpox, the new strain that has spread through parts of Africa and is reaching beyond the continent.

The agency raised its risk assessment for sporadic cases of mpox clade I in Europe to moderate on Friday.
