Tuliza Bisere holds her daughter Ishara, who was cured of mpox but still shows scars of the disease, in the camp for internal displaced persons in Mudja. The World Health Organization this week declared an international public health emergency in the face of rising cases that are spreading beyond the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where the virus is endemic.
