“…These may include fever, headache, muscle aches, and fatigue, followed by a rash that progresses through different stages, including the development of uid-lled blisters that crust over and eventually scab. The rash typically begins on the face and spreads to other body parts [19,23]. In severe cases, complications, such as pneumonia, encephalitis (brain in ammation), and eye infections, can occur.…”

The LGBTQIA2S + community is vulnerable to health problems, including triple-burden diseases such as Mpox, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and HIV positivity. This zoonotic disease is a global health burden in nonendemic countries. With increasing cases of the three diseases, this community faces various threats, obstacles, and challenges. This review aimed to identify the threats and barriers to triple-burden disease, including mpox infection, STIs, and HIV infection, simultaneously in LGBTQIA2S + populations. A bibliometric study approach was used to map these three diseases' research journeys and findings worldwide. The LGBTQIA2S + community faced distinct health disparities, including the triple disease burden, which refers to the higher prevalence and impact of multiple health conditions in this group. Although there has been no specific research on the triple burden of Mpox, STIs, and HIV in the LGBTQIA2S + community, this population faces various direct and indirect threats and barriers. These include stigma, discrimination, a lack of culturally competent care, limited resource access, and mental health effects. A comprehensive approach that includes destigmatization efforts, education, accessible healthcare services, and mental health support is necessary to address these challenges and improve the LGBTQIA2S + community's overall health outcomes. Promoting inclusivity, understanding, and awareness is essential to reduce community barriers and improve health.

“…We would like to comment on the publication “2022 Mpox (Monkeypox) outbreak: a concise review focused on new features of dermatological lesions”. 1 Pinto-Pulido et al Pinto-Pulido et al pointed out that in addition to epidemiological alterations, clinical variations from the clinical picture previously described in endemic areas have also been recorded. It is unclear if these modifications are brought on by genetic changes in the virus, a unique method of transmission, unique baseline traits of affected patients in comparison to those of endemic nations, or, more likely, a combination of all these elements.…”

“…We recently published a mpox concise review focused on the new features of dermatological lesions that were observed during the 2022 outbreak. 1 In response to this publication, Kleebayoon and Wiwanitkit 2 submitted an interesting letter pointing out the existence of mpox cases where diagnosis is challenging due to atypical or initially absent skin lesions.…”

“…Large 2022 case series reported 36%‒61.5% of patients develop unspecific systemic prodromic manifestations (fever, malaise, lymphadenopathy, headache). 1 Accurate diagnosis prior to the presence of mucocutaneous lesions is difficult. However, it is noteworthy that in this outbreak the absence of systemic symptoms or their appearance after the cutaneous manifestations was more frequent compared to previous outbreaks of classical mpox.…”
