Hola querida
Me alegra verte compartir con nosotros
Esta enfermedad lamentablemente es de rápida propagación según la OMS, entonces hay que tomar los debidos cuidados para que no suceda como en el Covid19. Me llama la atención que mencionaste malaria, no se porque lo hiciste, pero malaria es otra enfermedad y no esta relacionada directamente con este virus.

Malaria is a disease on its own. The early symptoms of monkeypox are similar to that of malaria which is why I listed it as one of the symptom. Hope it’s clear?
Thank you the review.
