After the second case of Monkeypox was reported, the Indian Health Ministry today (July 18, 2022) ordered strict enforcement of health screening of international travellers arriving in the country’s airports and ports.

India today reported its second confirmed case of monkeypox when a 31-year-old man who came from Dubai last week was diagnosed with the infection, just three days after the first case came to the fore.

A man was sent to Jashore General Hospital with suspected symptoms of monkeypox, on return from India yesterday (June 10, 2022).
