KNOWLEDGE 
*Monkeypox home care* 🏠

If you think you have monkeypox, isolate and contact a health worker. Do the following to protect others: 

• If possible, isolate in a separate room 
• Use a separate bathroom or clean well after each use 
• Clean surfaces with soap, water and disinfectant
• Use separate utensils, towels and bedding 
• Open windows for ventilation
• Clean hands with soap and water, and alcohol-based sanitizer
• Keep a distance of 1 meter from others
• Cover rash with clothes or bandages
• Wear a well-fitting medical mask 
• Avoid sweeping and vacuuming 
• Do your own laundry. Place laundry in a plastic bag before carrying it to the washing area, and use hot water

Use medication for pain and fever if needed. 

A monkeypox vaccine has been approved. Some countries recommend vaccination for those who've been in close contact with someone who has monkeypox. Mass vaccination is not recommended at this time.
