Chirwere ichi chinodziviririka uye vanhu vazhinji vanenge vabatwa nacho vanopora kana varapwa asi kune vamwe vanogona kurwara zvakanyanya.
Chinonyanya kubata varume vanoshinha nevamwe varume asika, hazvigumiri ipapo, chinogona kubata munhu wose kunyangwe asingaiti izvi.
Unokwanisa kutapurirwa chirwere ichi kana ganda rako ragumhana neanacho, zvakadai sekukwazisana nemaoko.
Kutaura makatarisana, kuimba, kufema kana kupanana tsvodo ndezvimwe zvinobatsira mukutapuriranwa kwechirwere ichi kune veruzhinji.
Vanhu vanoita bonde nevakawanda vane mikana yekutapurirana chirwere ichi.
Zviratidzo zveMonkeypox

. Geza maoko ako nesipo nemvura inochururuka mushure mekushanyira chimbuzi kana kukwazisa vanhu.
. Shandisa dziviriro yekondomu kana uine vadikani vakawanda.
. Kana uine zviratidzo zvechirwere ichi zviri pamusoro, tsvaga rubatsiro kuchipatara chiri padyo nekukasika upangwe mazano, kuvhenekwa nekurapwa.
. Kana waonekwa kuti une Monkeypox, regedza kusangana nevamwe vasina uye kana muchigara mumba mumwe chete, pihwa kamuri yemba yaunogara woga kudakara wapora asi uchizvichengetedza kuutano hwepfungwa nekurapwa mapundu iwayo kusvika apera.
. Regedza kugumana nemhuka, dzingava katsi kana imbwa dziri pamba, nekuti dzinoenderera mberi nekutapurira vamwe chirwere ichi kana dzikachitora kwauri.
. Munhu wese ane mukana wekutapurirwa chirwere ichi saka ibasa rako zvekare kuona kuti chadzivirirwa.
. Kubaiwa kwenhomba inodzivirira chirwere ichi kuvanhu vose munyika (Mass Drug Administration) ndiyo nzira huru yekuchirwisa.
