The main clinical picture of the monkeypox is similar to smallpox. The incubation period of infection until the onset of symptoms of monkeypox is usually 6-16 days. Symptoms include fever, headache, lymphadenopathy, back pain, muscle aches, and weakness. Skin rashes appear on the face then spread to other body parts. This rash develops from red spots such as smallpox, blisters filled with clear fluid, pus-filled pus, then hardens. It usually takes up to 3 weeks for the rash to disappear (Breman et al., 1980; Hutin et al., 2001).
