Diagnosis and Treatment
DR. ARTHUR DESSI ROMAN
Philippine Society for Microbiology & Infectious Diseases (PSMID)

Diagnosis
• Laboratory confirmation is necessary.
• Rule out other rash illnesses
• Chickenpox – Varicella IgM/IgG
• Measles – Measles IgM/IgG
• Bacterial skin infections – GS CS
• Scabies – characteristic ”burrows”
• Syphilis – palms and soles involvement, RPR/VDRL, TPPA
• Medication-associated allergies

Diagnosis: What specimens to
send?
• Vesicular or pustular fluid aspirate
• Crust or roof of skin lesion
• Skin or tissue

What is the preferred test to
diagnose monkeypox infection?
PCR is the preferred test to indicate the
presence of the virus in the skin lesions

Diagnostic Tests Used for Monkeypox
Polymerase Chain Reaction
(PCR) assay
Viral Isolation by Cell
Culture
Enzyme-linked
Immune Sorbent
Advantages • Preferred test
• Indicate the presence of the virus
• Can be used alone, or in
combination with sequencing
• GeneXpert MPX/OPX assay is
highly sensitive and specific
compared to real-time quantitative
MPX PCR assays (gold standard)
Indicate the presence of
the virus
• Detect exposure to the
virus
• IgM-based serology to
determine recent
exposure
• Paired sera analysis to
determine recent
infection
Disadvantages • No commercial PCR kits available
• Cartridge, primers and probes not
• yet available locally
• Limited to high-level
facilities with expertise
and equipment (e.g. US
CDC)
• Not yet available locally
• Cross-reactivity
between orthopoxvirus
species
• Not yet available locally
https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/monkeypox

Diagnostic Tests Used for Monkeypox
•Other diagnostic assays:
• Whole Genome Sequencing
• Electron microscopy: Brick-shaped poxvirus
•Histopathology: ballooning degeneration of
keratinocytes, prominent spongiosis, dermal edema, and
acute inflammation🡪 non-specific

Ancillary Diagnostic Tests
Ancillary test results are non-specific abnormalities (AST, ALT,
leukocytosis, mild thrombocytopenia, and hypoalbuminemia)
• Recommended: CBC, crea, AST, ALT
• If with significant GI losses: Na, K
• Other differentials: Varicella IgM/IgG, HSV PCR as needed

Treatment
• Supportive care – antipyretics, hydration if with losses
• Keep skin clean, dry with lesions covered with sterile wound
dressing.
• Change bed linens at regular intervals.
• Antibacterial treatment – if with superimposed bacterial infection
• Cloxacillin or clindamycin

• No proven antiviral therapy.
• Use of current Antivirals based on animal models and dose
studies in healthy humans
• Data not available on effectiveness of antivirals for human monkeypox
and its complications
• Can be used for control of outbreak or for severe cases
• Could only be used under Investigational New Drug (IND) or
Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) protocol
• Currently, no strong recommendation for use from any
international guidance.

Multi-country Monkeypox Outbreak in Non-endemic Countries
● Previous cases in non-endemic areas are associated with travel
● From May 13 – 21, 2022, 92 laboratory confirmed and 28 suspect Monkeypox cases were
reported from 12 non-endemic countries to the WHO
● No death reported.
● Majority have been reported amongst men who have sex with men (MSM) seeking care in
primary care and sexual health clinics.
● All laboratory confirmed cases were detected with West African clade.
● No established travel links to an endemic area and have presented through primary care,
secondary care or sexual health services
● The identification of confirmed and suspect cases with no direct travel links to an endemic
area is atypical

WHO Risk Assessment
Actions taken:
● Ongoing epidemiologic investigation and genomic sequencing to confirm the particular monkeypox virus
clade(s)
● Vaccination, where available, provided to manage close contacts
WHO Risk assessment:
● Infection in non-endemic countries seems to have been locally acquired with circulation occurring amongst
MSM.
● The extent of local transmission is unclear at this stage and there is the high likelihood of identification of
further cases with unidentified chains of transmission.
● With three countries reporting cases of monkeypox in this population group within a few days, it is therefore
highly likely that other countries may find similar situations.
WHO Advice:
● Intensive public health measures should continue in countries reporting cases.
● Further spread in other Member States is likely, thus, any patient with suspected monkeypox should be
investigated and isolated during the presumed and known infectious periods, that is during the prodromal
and rash stages of the illness, respectively.

Aligning with the Four-Door Strategy

Case Deﬁnition: Monkeypox in Non-endemic Countries
Suspected
Case
A person of any age presenting with an unexplained acute rash
AND
One or more of the following signs or symptoms:
● Headache;
● Acute onset of fever (>38.5°C);
● Myalgia;
● Back pain;
● Asthenia;
● Lymphadenopathy; AND
For which the following common causes of acute rash do not explain the clinical picture: varicella zoster,
herpes zoster, measles, herpes simplex, bacterial skin infections, disseminated gonococcal infection, primary
or secondary syphilis, chancroid, lymphogranuloma venereum, granuloma inguinale, molluscum contagiosum,
allergic reaction (e.g., to plants); and any other locally relevant common causes of papular or vesicular rash.
As per WHO, it is not necessary to obtain negative laboratory results for listed common causes of
rash illness in order to classify a case as suspected.

Case Definition: Monkeypox in Non-endemic Countries
Probable Case
A person meeting the case definition for a suspected case AND
One or more of the following:
● has an epidemiological link (face-to-face exposure, including health care workers without respiratory protection; direct
physical contact with skin or skin lesions, including sexual contact; or contact with contaminated materials such as
clothing, bedding or utensils) to a probable or confirmed case of monkeypox in the 21 days before symptom onset;
● reported travel history to a monkeypox endemic country in the 21 days before symptom onset;
● has had multiple sexual partners in the 21 days before symptom onset.
Confirmed Case
A case meeting the definition of either a suspected or probable case and is laboratory confirmed for monkeypox virus by
detection of unique sequences of viral DNA either by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and/or whole genome
sequencing (WGS).
Close Contact
A contact is defined as a person who, in the period beginning with the onset of the source case’s first symptoms, and
ending when all scabs have fallen off, has had one or more of the following exposures with a probable or confirmed case of
monkeypox:
● face-to-face exposure (including health care workers without appropriate PPE);
● direct physical contact, including sexual contact;
● contact with contaminated materials such as clothing or bedding.
Discarded Case
A case meeting the definition of either a suspected or a probable case but tested negative for monkeypox virus through
RT-PCR or WGS.

Immigration Reminders for Filipinos Traveling to
Monkeypox Affected Countries
MR. MARLON LIMJAP
Deputy for Operations NAIA Terminal 1
Bureau of Immigration

Reminders:
1. Refrain from traveling to the abovementioned affected countries if
possible;
2. If passenger cannot refrain from traveling to said affected countries,
then health protocols must be observed such as:
● Proper wearing of masks;
● Frequent handwashing; and
● Social Distancing;
3. Continuous coordination with Bureau of Quarantine and other
related government agencies.

• The Bureau of Immigration is an implementing agency of
DOH-IATF issuances. The Bureau adheres to IATF
Resolutions and issuances in crafting its policies during
this time of pandemic.
• The decision-making of the Bureau of Immigration in the
airport setting is guided by agencies such as the Bureau
of Quarantine (BOQ), who has expertise in the medical
field.
• Travel protocol and policies are screened by BOQ before
Immigration assessment commences.

The Philippine Strategy on fight
against diseases
• The Bureau of Immigration shall incoporate in our present
policy the Department of Health (DOH) instructions on
monkeypox.
• At present, the Philippines has adopted a four-door strategy in
intensifying border control to prevent the entry of monkeypox
virus into the country.
• The Bureau of Immigration is the implementing arm which
provides travel restrictions and bans as a separate and
primary level of defense to supplement the currently
implemented health protocols.

Monkeypox in Animal
DR. FEDELINO MALBAS, JR.
Head, Veterinary Research Department
Research Institute for Tropical Medicine (RITM)

68
RESEARCH INSTITUTE FOR TROPICAL MEDICINE
Etiology
• Monkeypox is a pox diseases of nonhuman primates
similar to variola in man
• MP is a zoonotic disease
• Belongs to Genus Orthopoxvirus related to variola
(smallpox) vaccinia,cowpox,buﬀalo pox and camelpox
viruses .
• Old , new world monkeys and arthropod apes can be
aﬀected
68

69
Etiology
• It was also isolated from wild squirrel
(Funisciurus anerythrus )Zaire/ Congo in 1986
• The natural reservoir of monkeypox remains
unknown;however,African rodents and
primates may harbor the virus and infect
people
69

70
Monkeypox
• 1959- the ﬁrst known outbreak in monkeys
was reported at the Statens Seruminstitut
Copenhagen/Denmark
• 1976- additional outbreaks in captive
primates have occurred in Paris
70

71
Virus
• It is rectangular virus of typical pox virus
structure and of 200 to 250 nano meter size
• Resistant to ether and relatively resistant to
cold
71

72
• Monkeypox is endemic in the African tropical
rain forest particularly in Congo,Zaire ,West
and Central Africa
• The virus has repeatedly caused human
infections
72

73
Transmission
• The monkeypox virus can be transmitted to
humans in bites from animals ,aerosols or by
direct contact with lesions ,blood or body
ﬂuids from an infected persons or animals .
• Most cases are zoonotic and occur after
contact with infected animal
• Can be spread on fomites
73

74
Transmission
• Aerogenous transmission is considered to be the main
route of transmission between nonhuman primates and
probably also to other species like man or as in one case in
ant eaters (Myrmecophaga tridactyla)
• The route of transmission in animals is less well
understood . The virus maybe transmitted through
aerosols through skin abrasions or by the ingestions of
infected tissues /meat
74

75
Pathogenicity
• Initial multiplication of the monkey pox virus
occurs in local cellular components ,most
probably in ﬁxed or wandering connective
tissue cells
• In experimentally infected Macacca
fascicularis a constant viremia appeared
between the 23rd
and 4th
day P.I.
75

76
Clinical symptoms
NHP : Differences exist in the susceptibility of
the different host species. Anthropod apes are
usually more severely affected than monkeys ,
while cynomolgus monkeys suffer more than
rhesus monkeys.
• After an incubation period of usually 3 to 4
days a sharp temperature rise heralds the
onset of the disease .
76

77
Clinical symptoms
• Animals become anxious with older ones
• Aggressive
• Anorexia
• With behavioral abnormalities such:
- sucking on ﬁngers
- inﬂammation of the lips
77

78
Clinical symptoms
As to development of the pocks (sores) two
types of lesions can be distinguished:
1st
type of lesion
• Acute marked facial edema
• Ulceration in mucous membranes and
papule formation
78

79
Clinical symptoms
1st
type of lesion
• General lymphadenopathy ,respiratory distress
• Death from asphyxia
• Arthropod apes are especially prone to such
severe infection (chimps,gorilla
orangutan,bonobo)
79

80
Clinical symptoms
2nd
type of lesion
• Infection occurs as a benign cutaneous eruption
• 7-8 days after experimental infection itching and
vesicular exanthema are common
• Occasional coughing and mucopurulent nasal
discharge indicate the presence of early lesions in
the respiratory tract
80

81
Clinical symptoms
2nd
type of lesion
• Ist typical pocks appears as papules of 1 to 4 mm.in
diameter
• Develop into pustules containing thick purulent
material
• Vesicles become umbilicated & covered by crusts or
scabs
• Desquamation of scabs or crusts within 7 to 10 days
& small scars remain
81

82
Clinical Symptoms
Most common sites of pocks/sore formation in monkeys
• Buttocks
• Hands
• Feet
• Mucous membrane of the tongue
• Oral cavity
• Pharynx ,larynx,trachea
• Spleen,tonsils, lymph nodes testes and ovaries
82

83
Infection in other Animals
Rabbits Rodents and Prarie Dogs initial signs
• Fever
• Conjunctivitis
• Nasal discharge
• Cough
• Lymphadenopathy
• Anorexia
• Lethargy
83

84
Infection …
Animals may then develop the following:
• Nodular rash
• Pustules
• Patchy alopecia
• Presence of pneumonia
The veterinarians should consider those signs.
84

85
Treatment
• Treatment is mainly supportive
• Antiretroviral drug cidofovir is eﬀective in vitro
animal studies
• Prevention of secondary infection using
antibiotics in NHP
• Endangered animals can be protected/useful by
variola –vaccination
85

86
Way Forward
• Avoiding contact with infected animals ( dead or sick animals).
• Avoiding contact with bedding and other materials contaminated
with the virus.
• Washing your hands with soap and water after coming into
contact with an infected animal.
• Cook foods thoroughly that contains animal meat or parts .
• Avoid contact with people who may be infected with the virus.
• PPE when caring for people or animals infected with the virus.
• Shipment of rats and NHP shall be strictly monitored by
DA-BAI,DENR and BOC for animals with MP symptoms.
