All three cases had traveled internationally
A third monkeypox case has been identified in San Diego County, health officials announced Friday afternoon, though none of the three has yet been confirmed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The new case has no connection to the first two, announced Wednesday, other than recent international travel and the fact that symptoms are mild and have not required hospitalization. In a statement, Dr. Wilma Wooten, the county’s public health director, said that all three are “managing their symptoms in home isolation.”
“Most individuals who become infected experience mild to moderate symptoms, and the risk of contracting the virus remains very low for the general population,” Wooten said.
