Overview

Currently, there are no established screening programs or guidelines for monkeypox in the Americas, Europe, or MENA "Middle East and North Africa" region.

Screening

• Monkeypox has been periodically identified in very small numbers in non-endemic regions.
• As of June 13, 2022, no screening measures were recommended in the Americas, Europe, or MENA "Middle East and North Africa" region.
• As a response to the 2022 global outbreak, the Department of Disease Control in Thailand took precautionary measures, screening travelers arriving into Thailand international airports. The screening targets arrivals from countries where monkeypox cases have been reported.
