Version 01 Issued on 07/06/2022	Suspect case definition: Individual of any age who, with effect from March 15 2022, has sudden onset of fever, adenomegaly and acute skin rash of the papulovesicular type and progressing uniformly. Probable case definition: Individual who meets the suspect case definition AND one OR more of the following criteria: Have an epidemiological link (close and prolonged exposure without respiratory protection; direct physical contact, including sexual contact; or contact with contaminated materials, such as clothes and bedclothes) with a probable or confirmed monkeypox case, since March 15 2022, in the 21 days prior to the onset of signs and symptoms OR History of traveling to a country that is endemic or had confirmed monkeypox cases in the 21 days prior to the onset of symptoms AND without laboratory confirmation. Confirmed case definition: Individual who meets the suspect case or probable case definition with laboratory confirmation of having the monkeypox virus obtained by means of molecular testing (qPCR and/or sequencing). Discarded case definition: Suspected case that does not meet the monkeypox confirmation criterion or who had another disease confirmed by means of clinical or laboratory diagnosis.
Version 02 Issued on 17/06/2022	Suspect case definition: Individual of any age who, with effect from March 15 2022, has sudden onset of acute skin rash suggestive of monkeypox, either single or multiple, on any part of their body (including the genital region), whether or not associated with adenomegaly or report of fever AND History of traveling to a country that is endemic or had confirmed monkeypox cases in the 21 days prior to the onset of symptoms OR Have an epidemiological link with people with a history of traveling to a country that is endemic or had confirmed monkeypox cases, since March 15 2022, in the 21 days prior to the onset of signs and symptoms OR Have an epidemiological link with suspected, probable or confirmed monkeypox cases, since March 15 2022, in the 21 days prior to the onset of signs and symptoms OR History of intimate contact with strangers and/or casual partners, in the 21 days prior to the onset of signs and symptoms. Probable case definition: Suspect case, submitted to clinical and epidemiological investigation, AND who developed a clinical condition compatible with monkeypox, but without possibility of laboratory confirmation by means of qPCR and/or sequencing. Confirmed case definition: Individual who meets the suspect case definition and has a “positive/detectable” monkeypox laboratory test result/report obtained by means of molecular diagnosis (real-time PCR and/or sequencing). Discarded case definition: Individual who meets the suspect case definition but has a “negative/undetectable” monkeypox laboratory test result/report obtained by means of molecular diagnosis (real-time PCR and/or sequencing).
Version 03 Issued on 29/06/2022	Suspect case definition: Individual of any age who, with effect from March 15 2022, has sudden onset of acute skin rash suggestive of monkeypox, either single or multiple, on any part of the body (including the genital region), whether or not associated with adenomegaly or report of fever AND History of intimate contact with strangers and/or casual partners, in the 21 days prior to the onset of signs and symptoms OR Have an epidemiological link with confirmed monkeypox cases, since March 15 2022, in the 21 days prior to the onset of signs and symptoms OR History of traveling to a country that is endemic or had confirmed monkeypox cases in the 21 days prior to the onset of symptoms OR Have an epidemiological link with people with a history of traveling to a country that is endemic or had confirmed monkeypox cases, since March 15 2022, in the 21 days prior to the onset of signs and symptoms. Probable case definition: Suspect case, submitted to clinical and epidemiological investigation, AND who developed a clinical condition compatible with monkeypox, but without possibility of laboratory confirmation by means of qPCR and/or sequencing. Confirmed case definition: Individual who meets the suspect case definition and has a “positive/detectable” monkeypox laboratory test result/report obtained by means of molecular diagnosis (real-time PCR and/or sequencing). Discarded case definition: Individual who meets the suspect case definition but has a “negative/undetectable” monkeypox laboratory test result/report obtained by means of molecular diagnosis (real-time PCR and/or sequencing), OR Suspect case who during clinical, epidemiological and laboratory investigation was diagnosed as having another disease compatible with the clinical condition the patient presented, except STI.
Version 04 Issued on 27/07/2022	Suspect case definition: Individual of any age who, with effect from March 15 2022, has sudden onset of acute skin rash suggestive of monkeypox, either single or multiple, on any part of their body (including the genital region), whether or not associated with adenomegaly or report of fever. Confirmed case definition: Individual who meets the suspect case definition and has a “positive/detectable” monkeypox laboratory test result/report obtained by means of molecular diagnosis (real-time PCR and/or sequencing).
