Two more people have been diagnosed with monkeypox in UK in cases not linked to previous infection as disease spreads and hunt for their close contacts begins
The pair live together in same household, the UK Health Security Agency said
One person receiving care at St Mary's Hospital's expert infectious disease unit
The other person is isolating and does not currently require hospital treatment
Health bosses emphasised that overall risk to general public remains 'very low'

Monkeypox hits Europe: Five men in Portugal test positive as Spain probes eight suspected cases in men - as experts warn there could be 'tens' of cases in Britain
First signs of global outbreak of rare disease as Portugal, UK, Spain all find cases
Experts fear disease is spreading in communities for first time, going undetected
US health officials are monitoring six Americans who were in contact with case
Monkeypox has now been spotted in Portugal and Spain, in what could be the first global outbreak of the rare disease.
Spain is monitoring eight men who it believes are infected, with tests being carried out to confirm they have the virus.
All of the men are gay or bisexual, according to local media, and most were detected at STI clinics in Madrid.
Five men in Portugal have also tested positive and at least 15 more cases are being investigated, health officials there said today.
These cases are all male and mostly 'young' — but it is not yet clear how they caught the virus.
Until now, monkeypox cases were confined to travellers and their relatives returning from western and central Africa, where the virus is endemic.
But experts now fear it is spreading more widely for the first time, after seven Britons were diagnosed in the past fortnight.
Six of them appear to have been infected in the UK and the majority are not linked, which suggests more cases are going undetected. Health chiefs are scrambling to find the source of the cases.
Four of the British patients are gay or bisexual men, and officials say the pattern of transmission is 'highly suggestive of spread in sexual networks'.
Dr Simon Clarke, a microbiologist at the University of Reading, told MailOnline he suspects UK case numbers are already 'in the tens'.
But he insisted the disease will not spread like Covid, adding: 'I would be surprised if we ever got to more than 100 cases [in Britain]'.

PPL HAD A PROBLEM
WITH THE "WUHAN FLU"
BUT MONKEY POX FROM
WEST AFRICA IS COOL
JUST LIKE "EBOLA" AND
THE "WEST NILE" VIRUS.
Don't forget Marburg virus, the deadly African fever named after.....a German city.
Monkeypox has been around since 1958. I really don't think woke liberals were regulating disease names in the 1950s.
It was named "monkeypox" by the same process that cowpox, camelpox, and buffalopox got their names. It's a variant of an Orthopoxvirus and its natural reservoir is monkeys.
Nigeria = Africa = Monkeypox = Monkey = Black People having “contact” with monkeys = Sex?
I swear these Cacs think they’re slick assuming some won’t connect the dotsThis bullshyt origin story about to sound like AIDS all over again.
Monkey pox has been around for over 60 years. Educate yourself.
Yup, because in 1958 when it was discovered there were very few virologists working with wild monkeys in Africa. So the first cases known to science were in lab monkeys that had been transported for research.
But considering that 1958 was nearly 20 years before genetic engineering was discovered, it would be a stretch to suggest it was "lab made".
