In the face of the threat of a Monkeypox outbreak in Pakistan, authorities from the federal health ministry warned there are currently no diagnostic tests available for the virus.

The government is attempting to purchase testing kits for the National Institute of Health in Islamabad, according to officials (NIH). They did say, however, that in the event of an emergency, the samples might be transported abroad for testing.

According to officials, health experts might label a patient a suspected case based on the conditions by studying the symptoms.
