Libya declares state of health emergency to confront monkeypox

The National Center for Disease Control (NCDC) announced that it has executed urgent measures for international health control offices at all land, sea, and air ports, raising the state of alert and readiness amid the outbreak of monkeypox (Mpox).

The African Center for Disease Control has announced a state of health emergency across the entire African continent due to the increase in Mpox cases in 16 countries so far, with the disease entering some countries for the first time.

In a statement, the NCDC reported that it has raised the state of alert and readiness for the nationwide monitoring and rapid response network. The center also ensured the readiness of community health laboratories and the community health emergency room to monitor the situation and report any suspected cases to ensure the safety of all.

The NCDC reassured the public that no cases have been recorded in Libya so far and confirmed that all departments are prepared to confront this disease and take all necessary measures to protect citizens and residents, following its responsibilities across the country.
