Person in Istanbul quarantined for suspected monkeypox; claim refuted
The Center for Combating Disinformation has reassured the public that there are no patients quarantined in any health facility in Istanbul with suspicion of monkeypox disease. This statement comes after a person who had visited a hospital with dermatological symptoms tested negative for monkeypox.
The center emphasized that the individual in question was not isolated, contrary to rumors circulating online. They also mentioned that the Ministry of Health has been transparent in providing necessary information and urged the public not to believe unfounded claims aimed at causing panic.
It is important to rely on official sources for accurate information regarding public health concerns, rather than spreading misinformation. The Center for Combating Disinformation continues to monitor and address any false claims to ensure the public is well-informed and protected.
