NEW YORK: 'It was the worst pain that I have experienced in my life,' says 26-year-old New Yorker Kyle Planck, recalling his recent monkeypox infection.Although anyone can catch monkeypox, Planck first took note of the virus in spring when authorities said many of the first cases in Europe and America were in men who have sex with men.
'The pain was so severe for me that I basically was taking warm baths six or seven times a day, just because that was the only thing that would make me feel better,' he says.Planck found the experience 'exhausting' and adding to his stress was a fear of contaminating his roommate, even though transmission occurs by close contact.He believes his case was 'relatively mild' because he was able to receive treatment and that 'so many people are going through worse.
