The National Agency for the Control of AIDS has urged the public to take preventive measures against the rising threat of Mpox, in line with its commitment to the health and safety of Nigerians, particularly those living with HIV.
The Director General of NACA, Dr Temitope Ilori, said this in a statement on Saturday, signed by the agency’s Head of Public Relations and Protocol, Toyin Aderibigbe.
Ilori emphasised the heightened risk faced by people living with HIV, stating, “While anyone can contract Mpox, individuals with compromised immune systems, such as those living with HIV, may experience more severe symptoms.”
She said it is critical that these individuals take extra precautions to protect themselves.
