- What is Mpox in plain English?
- These diseases are closely monitored globally because of severity, epidemic potential, or international travel relevance.
- How does Mpox spread?
- Transmission routes differ by pathogen; follow WHO, CDC, ECDC, or national guidance for accurate, pathogen-specific information.
- Why do people track Mpox on OutbreakThreat?
- Official agencies publish situational updates, investigations, and environmental surveillance. OutbreakThreat links those updates in one place for situational awareness.
- What does "official" mean on OutbreakThreat?
- Official signals are tied to a primary publisher such as a national health agency, WHO Disease Outbreak News, or a state health department notice. We still expect you to read the original page for full context.
- What is the difference between an outbreak signal and a confirmed outbreak?
- A signal is a dated, sourced public notice we can point to—often an investigation update, advisory, or surveillance uptick. It is not the same as a final case count or a declared outbreak classification; agencies refine wording over time.
- How often is outbreak data updated?
- Public pages refresh on a short cache window. New items appear after ingestion runs or manual admin verification with a source URL. Reporting agencies themselves publish on their own cadence.
- Can I get alerts for my home, school, or business?
- Paid plans let you save watch locations with a radius and receive email alerts when active signals match your rules. The global map and alert listing stay open without a subscription.
