Another mpox suspect arrives in Pakistan's Karachi airport

He was later admitted to a hospital.

Sources told Dawn News that the 26-year-old patient, a resident of Abbottabad, had arrived from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

He was suspected to be suffering from the disease during a health screening at the airport.

This is the fourth case of the virus infection reported from Karachi in the past few weeks.

“He has presented with rashes and some lesions on his skin. He is stable,” a doctor at the Sindh Infectious Disease Hospital and Research Centre, where the patient is currently under observation, told the newspaper.
