Monkeypox
Monkeypox is a virus that causes fever symptoms as well as a distinctive bumpy rash. It is usually mild, although there are two main strains: the Congo strain, which is more severe — with up to 10 percent mortality — and the West African strain, which has a fatality rate of more like 1 percent of cases. First found in monkeys in 1958, the virus spreads through close contact, both in spillovers from animal hosts and, less commonly, between humans.
Glacial lake outburst flood
A common occurrence in Pakistan, such flooding occurs when soaring temperatures melt glaciers at high speed and swell nearby lakes to unstable levels. Pakistan is home to more than 7,000 glaciers, more than anywhere outside the polar regions.
