The Italian health authorities even if there is no concern for the moment about outbreaks of smallpox of monkeys infections speak of possible targeted quarantines and consequent isolation for individual cases (those monitored for now would be attributable to a party in the Canaries); then the virus of this zoonosis is considered rather stable unlike SARS-CoV-2. The cessation of universal smallpox vaccination in humans decades ago due to the eradication of the virus exposes younger people who have close contact to possible smallpox of monkeys infections and to prevent it from becoming endemic in Europe a healthy distancing is advisable. The two hundred and nineteen confirmed cases in the world would all be in young people and in areas of the world where the "mpox" virus is endemic the virus circulates in some mammals and sometimes some contagion occurs with humans.
