14 November 2024
CDC assessed the risk to the United States posed by the clade I mpox outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and in countries in Central and Eastern Africa. Four travel-associated cases of clade Ib mpox have been confirmed in the United States—in California, Georgia, New Hampshire, and New York. Our risk assessment remains unchanged, since onward spread of clade I mpox has not occurred in the United States to date. The risk to the general population is assessed as low.
