Abstract
World Health Organization has announced Corona Virus as a pandemic causing infectant. Similarly, Monkeypox virus also has affected numerous people across the globe after CoV outbreak. The purpose of the study is to analyse about disease’s occurrence and how similar and different they are to one another in several aspects. The regional surveillance system noticed an upsurge in monkeypox (MPX) infections in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) October 2013. There is little knowledge of how MPV entered the community and the elements that influence transmission within the homes. There were 68 wild creatures gathered and examined for the orthopoxvirus. Antibodies to two of the three rope squirrels (Funisciurus sp.) were positive with rthopoxviruses, but there was no evidence linking rope squirrel intake or preparation to a higher risk. To find risk factors of introduction of MPV transmission in community and homes a case-control and retrospective cohort investigations were carried out and the people who were most usually recognized as the first person infected in the family were male students. Using the same plate or cup as the primary case while sleeping in the same room or bed was another risk factor for contracting MPXV in a family. Eating or preparing wild animals did not pose any substantial risks. The virus causing COVID-19 is SARS-CoV-2 it shares a genome with two bats coronaviruses which are 82% bat-SL-CoVZXC21 and bat-SL-CoVZC45 by more than 89%. The WHO has classified this as a global pandemic and only supportive care is offered to patients as of right now. Presented Review article contains a detailed note on various similarities and differences between both the pandemic viruses.
