The British Public Health Agency has recommended vaccinations for some gay men, who are considered to be at increased risk of monkeypox, to contain the infection.

The agency said that "although anyone can contract monkeypox, current data show higher levels of transmission between gays and bisexuals," according to its description.

From the beginning of the year to mid-June, this virus was monitored - which usually spreads in central and western Africa, in Europe, Australia, the Middle East, North and South America, and more than 2,100 infections were recorded in total during this period.

The United Kingdom alone had recorded 793 injuries as of June 16.

Most of the injuries recorded so far have been reported by bodies concerned with sexual health, and the bulk of them are related to men who have sexual relations with men, according to the World Health Organization.

The World Health Organization says that many cases do not match the traditional clinical picture of monkeypox, as it was reported that blisters appeared before symptoms such as fever and ulcers in various stages of development, which are unusual cases.
