    A Tulare County resident tested positive for monkeypox, county
    public health officials announced on Thursday.

    Monkeypox is a public health concern because the illness can be
    spread from humans, animals, and materials contaminated with the
    virus, health officials said.

    “It is important for our community to be informed on emerging
    public health threats like monkeypox; however, currently, the
    risk to the general public is low,” said Dr. Karen Haught,
    Tulare County Public Health officer. “The case is in isolation,
    recovering at home. We are actively investigating the
    circumstances surrounding this case, identifying close contacts,
    and notifying them of their potential exposure.”

    – and the fight against stigma

    Symptoms of monkeypox include:
    Flulike symptoms
    A rash on the face, extremities, or genital area that may look
    like pimples or blisters, fever, swollen lymph nodes, general
    body aches, or fatigue.
    People with a monkeypox infection may experience all or only a
    few of these symptoms, and most will develop a rash. The
    incubation period is from about five days to three weeks. Most
    people recover within about two to four weeks without needing to
    be hospitalized, according to health officials.

    Monkeypox spreads through "direct, close contact with an
    infected person," Haught said. The virus enters the body through
    broken skin, the respiratory tract, or the eyes, nose, or mouth
    after skin or sexual contact, from bodily fluids, or contact
    with contaminated clothing.

    Additionally, the illness can be passed to others from the onset
    of symptoms until all sores have healed, according to health
    officials.

    “It is vital that persons who have symptoms or suspect they have
    monkeypox contact their health care provider right away,” Haught
    said. "There are many other causes of rashes, but it is always
    important to let your provider know you have a rash when
    scheduling an appointment."

    Monkeypox: Reducing the spread
    To reduce the spread of monkeypox, doctors recommend that people
    take the following steps:

    Practice good hand hygiene often, with soap and water or alcohol-
    based hand rub
    Wear a well-fitted face mask when around others
    Talk with any new partners about their health before close or
    intimate contact
    Avoid close contact with people who are sick and their bedding,
    clothing, or other materials
    Stay home and call your provider if you are sick with any
    symptoms or have a new rash
    Stay aware if traveling to countries or large events where there
    are current outbreaks of monkeypox
    Confirmed cases of the disease are on the rise in California —
    186 cases — and in the U.S. — 791, according to health
    officials. Currently, there are no reported deaths for the
    disease in California.

    Although there are no treatments for monkeypox, a vaccination
    may be recommended for patients who were exposed to the virus.

    Anyone who believes they have been exposed to monkeypox or have
    symptoms should call their health care provider.
