More than 30,000 people worldwide have been infected with monkeypox, which was discovered in Africa. The World Health Organization has declared monkey measles an international health emergency.
In this case, the World Health Organization has decided to use Roman numerals instead of geographically naming viral diseases because scientists have been saying that the name monkey measles is racist and discriminatory.
Accordingly, suggestions are sought from the public for monkey measles and virus names. Also, it has been decided to give a new name to the varaint names instead of regionally based names. Based on this, the World Health Organization named clade 1 for monkey measles variants found in the Central African country of Congo, and clade 2 for monkey measles variants in West Africa.
