Human monkeypox is transmitted by

  • A.the faecal-oral route only
  • B.insect bite only
  • C.contaminated drinking water
  • D.contact, or airborne to the respiratory mucosa

Answer: D

Transmission occurs by contact and also by the airborne route to the respiratory mucosa, which distinguishes it from the poxviruses that require broken skin. That route is part of why the infection becomes generalized rather than staying local.
