Monkeypox, also known as mpox, can spread easily between people in close contact or face-to-face, according to experts.
A resident of Long Beach has tested positive for the virus, which was first discovered in Denmark in the 1950s.

The World Health Organization (WHO) states that the virus can present with various symptoms, including rashes and fevers.
While typically non-fatal, some people are susceptible to severe infections, which can result in death, making diagnosis crucial.
Other viruses, like chickenpox and measles, can mimic the appearance of monkeypox, making treatment more complex.
Experts emphasize the importance of determining if symptoms are truly caused by monkeypox.
