The rise in monkeypox cases has prompted a flurry of social media posts, with many saying that the chimpanzee adenovirus vector being used AstraZeneca’s Covid vaccination is to blame, and others stating that the infection is only shingles and a “well-known” adverse effect of the vaccine. Both claims, according to experts contacted by PTI, are false. They have sparked heated debate on Twitter, to numerous posts & thousands of retweets. Adenoviruses are not linked to poxviruses, therefore shingles is not same as monkeypox. Is Adenovirus and Monkeypox related? While the AstraZeneca vaccine does contain a chimp adenovirus vector, the virus has been modified to inhibit that from replicating in human cells. The vector’s job is to transport the vaccine components into human cells, but it does not cause infection, according to scientists.”Adenovirus and monkeypox are both DNA viruses, but they cannot cause each other,” said Vineeta Bal of the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research in Pune. DNA viruses, such as adenoviruses, herpes viruses, and poxviruses, have DNA rather than RNA as their genetic material.”That’s ludicrous, even for conspiracy theories.” It’s the same as saying we’re all at danger of smallpox because we’re all constantly infected with human adenoviruses,” noted Satyajit Rath, visiting researcher at Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) in Pune. Monkeypox outbreaks have caused concern in a number of countries throughout the world since the viral infection, which spreads by intimate contact and was initially discovered in monkeys, is usually found in african countries and only travels extremely rarely abroad.
