Chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus. In this disease, red spots or rashes emerge all over the body. This disease spreads easily from one person to another. If a person comes into ...

One of the most studied connections involves varicella-zoster virus, which causes chickenpox. Research published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention found a significant association ...

While analysing tissue samples, the team members began falling ill one after the other with symptoms akin to Mpox or smallpox. They knew that the virus would spread – fast – and another ...

The exercise, dubbed "Exercise Polaris", involved over 350 emergency health experts who were tasked with responding to an outbreak of Mammothpox — a made-up, fast-spreading, and deadly virus with ...

Mammothpox was a deadly pathogen closely related to the now extinct smallpox and the currently spreading monkeypox, also called mpox, with a mortality rate between the two viruses. Smallpox is ...
