The World Health Organisation says the number of monkeypox cases reported globally declined by 21 per cent last week, after a month-long trend of rising infections. The WHO declared the outbreak a global health emergency in July. So far, more than 41,000 cases of monkeypox and 12 deaths have been reported from 96 countries, with the majority in the United States.
