5月7日至25日，联合王国确诊了86例猴痘病例。已知只有一例病例曾前往猴痘病毒（MPXV）流行国家。有信息的79例为男性，66例报告为同性恋、双性恋或其他男男性行为者。这是英国首次报告的MPXV持续传播，通过密切接触（包括性网络）进行人传人。目前正在改进病例查明和预防向外地传播的措施。
Between 7 and 25 May, 86 monkeypox cases were confirmed in the United Kingdom (UK). Only one case is known to have travelled to a monkeypox virus (MPXV) endemic country. Seventy-nine cases with information were male and 66 reported being gay, bisexual, or other men who have sex with men. This is the first reported sustained MPXV transmission in the UK, with human-to-human transmission through close contacts, including in sexual networks. Improving case ascertainment and onward-transmission preventive measures are ongoing.
