Difference between Covid-19 and Mpox?
Coronavirus is caused by SARS-COV-2. At the same time, the monkeypox virus is an orthopox virus of the Poxviridae family. The symptoms of corona can be more severe than monkeypox. At the same time, coronavirus is more contagious.
The coronavirus attacks the lungs. At the same time, rashes appear on the body when monkeypox occurs.
Symptoms can appear within 14 days after being infected with corona. At the same time, symptoms appear within 21 days after being infected with monkeypox.
A person infected with corona can also recover in 4 to 5 days. At the same time, if a person is infected with monkeypox, it may take 2 to 4 weeks to recover.

How dangerous is monkeypox?

Most patients recover in two to four weeks.
