Skin rashes and fever are mutual symptoms in both the viruses and that’s lead to confusion

Doctors say there is a way to tell the difference

Monkeypox is a virus that’s been transmitted to humans from animals.

And has similar symptoms to smallpox, but medical experts say it is less severe.

In regards to the differences in ChickenPox and Monkeypox symptoms.

Speaking to India TV, Dr Satish Koul from the Memorial Research Institute said, “In monkeypox, the lesions are bigger than chickenpox. In monkeypox, the lesions are seen on palms and soles. In chickenpox, lesions are self limiting after seven to eight days but not in monkeypox.”

Nonetheless it is always better to consult a doctor to put all doubts to rest.

The World Health Organization has declared monkeypox a global health emergency

And it is continuing to spread around the world.

According to The Guardian,

“All the evidence suggests that the outbreak is highly concentrated among men who have sex with men, and the virus is overwhelmingly transmitted through sexual contact. But even as that has become abundantly clear, there has still been a curious reticence in much of the public health messaging about saying so.”

And this criticism continues to be echoed, especially when it comes to the US Federal response to the outbreak.

As the world comes out of the COVID 19 pandemic, the last thing anyone wants is to re-enter it.

And that’s why we must all take our precautions.

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.

The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.

Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.

Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
