A research recently indicated that the monkeypox virus spread through sexual activity in at least ninety-five per cent cases.
WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said communities faced life-threatening discrimination while informing that "men who have sex with men could be stigmatised or blamed for the outbreak."
Europe and the US have been badly hit with the monkeypox virus as European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control informed that there were at least 7,896 confirmed cases in the European continent.
Spain is the worst-hit country in Europe with over 2,800 monkeypox cases followed by Germany, France, Netherlands and Portugal.
The first monkeypox case in the UK was detected on May 6 and since then the country has confirmed 2,137 cases, including in Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and England.
In England, there have been 2,050 confirmed monkeypox cases with a high proportion reported among London residents.
