Abstract
Mpox has troubled African nations for over 50 years and its resurgence serves as a reminder of the importance of comprehensive, sustainable and globally equitable public health strategies in healthcare access, human resources, vaccination and training of healthcare workers. Dermatologists, in collaboration with other specialists, are required in seamless, transdisciplinary efforts to strengthen surveillance and efforts at control and elimination of mpox. Because infectious diseases do not recognize borders, it is pertinent to continue to emphasize that the health of one region is increasingly linked to the health of the entire world.
