Monkeypox: Bengaluru doc suggests dos and don'ts

Hindustan Times  

The Karnataka government is on guard after the state had its first monkeypox scare last week. Hindustan Times spoke to Bengaluru-based Dr Gaurav Sharma, a general physician and cardiologist with over 19 years experience in medical research and new medicine development, about the virus, how to treat it, prevention, symptoms, dos and don'ts, and many more. A) The main difference is the pattern of fever and rashes and, more importantly, we need to differentiate by seeing if any lymph nodes develop in the infected person. Q) What is 'hand foot mouth' disease that can be confused with monkeypox? People with severe medical conditions will be more vulnerable because their immune system and health status is already compromised.
