The report for week 41, covering October 7 to 13, revealed that the new infections were identified across various states, including two cases each in Plateau and Bauchi, and one case each in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abia, and Delta.

The disease has spread extensively across the country, with 36 states and the FCT reporting suspected cases, indicating widespread distribution.
The NCDC emphasised its commitment to managing the Mpox outbreak through its National Mpox multi-sectoral Emergency Operation Center. “We are actively coordinating efforts to respond to this outbreak,” the agency stated on its website. Notably, there have been no reported deaths related to the outbreak.
