Typically infrequent in forested areas of Central and West Africa, monkeypox is a sylvatic zoonosis with incidental human infections. It is brought on by the Orthopoxvirus family member monkeypox virus (MPXV).

There are two monkeypox clades, Congo Basin and West African, according to genomic sequencing, which is compatible with documented variations in human pathogenicity and fatality in the two geographical locations. Both clades can be lethal to people and are spread by touch, droplet exposure from large inhaled droplets, or by bedding and other feces.
