Global monkeypox threat upgraded to ‘moderate’ by World Health Organization amid fears virus will jump to animals and never be eradicated
WHO said outbreak is ‘moderate risk’ because clusters have been reported in different places simultaneously
The outbreak, which was first detected in early May, has spread to 24 countries and struck 106 Britons
The UN health agency said risk from the virus ‘could become high’ if it spreads to more vulnerable groups
WHO said surge in infections suggests virus ‘may have been circulating unrecognised’ for weeks or longer
There are growing concerns that monkeypox will spill into wild animals and never be eradicated
