Anyone who tests positive should abstain from sex while symptomatic and use condoms for eight weeks.
New guidance for doctors and other healthcare workers to help control the latest outbreak has now been agreed by the four health authorities in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
They should avoid contact with other people until all lesions - or blisters - have healed and scabs have dried off.The guidance says that while there is currently no available evidence that monkeypox can be spread in sexual fluids, people confirmed to have the virus are advised to use condoms for eight weeks after infection as a precaution.Confirmed cases and their close contacts should take extra care if they need to leave the house to see a doctor or other health worker.
"The risk to the UK population remains low and anyone with unusual rashes or lesions on any part of their body should immediately contact NHS 111 or their local sexual health service."
