This is how you can protect yourself from monkeypox this period.

1. Pay attention to rash like these: At different stages of the disease, it can take different looks, so the number 1 rule is this: Do not try to diagnose any rash in your house, get a doctor to look at it

2. Avoid skin-to-skin contact with other people:

If you are going to attend a party or club where people might not wear a lot of clothing, swimming pools for instance. Do not get that close to other people as they might have the rash that might be easily contract

3. If you see this rash on anyone, Do not have skin contact with them. Usually, this rash is seen on the face, hands, mouth, but can also spread to the private organs of that person,

If someone asks you to touch a rash, PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH ANOTHER PERSON'S RASH

4. If you notice someone with a rash that looks like this, do not share towels or bed sheets even their clothes.

Also, get separate cups or spoons for them, if you suspect that someone near you has monkey pox, please report to the nearest hospital near you

Please wash your hands, you might have touched something that someone who has the rash has touched and that can get you get you infected also.

Handwashing is one of the best ways to protect you, your family, and your friends from getting sick

Wash your hands!!!!!
