Caption: UK Confirms Two More Cases of New Mpox Strain in Household Contacts. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has confirmed two more cases of the new mpox strain, Clade 1b, in the UK. These cases are household contacts of the first patient, who had recently returned from Africa and developed flu-like symptoms followed by a rash. The two new patients are currently under specialist care at Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital in London. The UKHSA emphasizes that the risk to the public remains low, and they’ve prepared healthcare workers to manage any further cases. All contacts of the three patients are being monitored and will be offered testing and vaccination if necessary. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
