The Junta de Castilla y León, through the General Directorate of Public Health, has activated the action, epidemiological and care protocol, in the event of a possible case of monkeypox infection in the Community.

The Ministry of Health has sent the corresponding analytics, following the actions for this type of situation established in the whole of the National Health System by the Coordinating Center for Health Alerts and Emergencies.

The case now reported as suspected meets clinical and epidemiological criteria, for which the Board's Epidemiology Services have transferred the corresponding samples to the National Microbiology Center of Majadahonda (Madrid), a reference laboratory for analysis by PCR test, as indicated by the health department in a statement.

It should be remembered that Castilla y León has studied several more suspicious cases for the moment and all have been ruled out.
