Andrea Ammon:
"We have to raise the awareness of how #monkeypox virus transmits mainly - and that is via direct, close contact, including sexual activities.
However we should not neglect the other - less probable & not so frequent ways - and we included them in our guidance".
#ECDC Director Andrea Ammon:
"It's important to keep in mind that while there are a numbers of way of transmission for #monkeypox, we need to prioritise the most frequent - through direct close contact."
