Recently, the WHO announced an outbreak of a new branch of monkeypox in the Congo. This international public health event has raised a lot of concern and worry.
It is important to note that monkeypox can be transmitted from person to person and sometimes from animals to people. We do not yet know what the natural host of this virus is, but various small mammals such as squirrels and monkeys are more susceptible to the virus.

Medical waste management plays an important role in such large-scale infectious disease events. Medical waste, such as bandages and cotton swabs stained with patients' blood, is highly infectious. Moreover, monkeypox is a zoonotic disease, and monkeypox infections are caused by animal carcasses that should be disposed of in a timely manner.
Medical waste disposal equipment is very important. It can help to cut off infection from medical waste and animal carcasses, provide a safe working environment for healthcare workers, etc., and alleviate social anxiety to a certain extent.
Proper and timely disposal of medical waste can help prevent and stop the spread of monkeypox. Not to be overlooked is LI-YING's professional medical waste treatment equipment.
