Abstract
We report the first imported case of human monkeypox in Hong Kong, manifesting as infectious mononucleosis-like syndrome. Viral load in deep throat saliva was comparable to vesicle swabs collected from face, arm, and back of this patient, suggesting deep throat saliva as an alternative specimen for early diagnosis of monkeypox.
