摘要：To the editor,
We would like to share our feedback on the publication "Is China ready for monkeypox?". 1 Wei documented the wide range of clinical prob-lems associated with monkeypox. Wei mentioned that it is necessary to strengthen the prevention method against monkeypox. Usually, in addition to a fever, the patient with monkeypox has a skin problem, usually vesicula lesions. However, it is possible that neither a fever nor a skin lesion is present in a patient with monkeypox. 2 According to a recent report by Benites-Zapata et al., the meta-analysis results showed that rash occurs in 93％ and fever in 72％ of patients with mon-keypox. 3 Without the atypical appearance of lesions, the doctor can fail to identify the issue and incorrectly diagnose the disease. 4 In addition, the general laboratory inquiry is commonly based on the evaluation of crust or vesicle clinical samples. Therefore, it is clear that skin lesion is considered to be a typical clinical problem in almost all published re-ports. It is important to recognize that some patients display only odd symptoms, such as gastrointestinal and neurological conditions.
