ໃນວັນທີ 08 ສິງຫາ 2022, ກຸ່ມຊ່ຽວຊານຂອງ ສ WHO ໄດ້ເຂົ້າມາເປັນເອກະພາບກ່ຽວກັບການຕັ້ງຊື່ຂອງທີ່ຮູ້ຈັກແລະໃຫມ່ ພະຍາດລີງ ເຊື້ອໄວຣັສ (MPXV) variants or clades. Accordingly, the former Congo Basin (Central African) clade will be known as Clade one(I) and the former West African clade will be called Clade two (II). Further, the Clade II consists of two subclades Clade IIa and Clade IIb.
Clade IIb refer primarily to the group of variants largely circulating in the 2022 global outbreak.
ການຕັ້ງຊື່ເຊື້ອສາຍຈະເປັນການສະເຫນີໂດຍການລະບາດຂອງວິວັດການ.
The idea behind new nomenclature policy is to avoid stigmatising. Hence, WHO finds a name that does not refer to a geographical location, an animal, an individual or group of people, and which is also pronounceable and related to the disease. The most significant implementation of this guideline was seen in February 2020 when the disease caused by the novel ໂຣກ coronavirus detected in Wuhan, China was officially named Covid-19 ແລະນະວະນິຍາຍ ໂຣກ coronavirus ຖືກເອີ້ນວ່າ SARS-CoV -2. Both names made no reference to any of the people, places or animals associated with this ເຊື້ອໄວຣັສ.
It is noteworthy that neither monkeypox ເຊື້ອໄວຣັສ (MPXV) itself nor the disease caused by it has been given new names yet.
ຄະນະກໍາມະສາກົນກ່ຽວກັບການພາສີຂອງ ໄວຣັສ (ICTV) is responsible for naming of ເຊື້ອໄວຣັສ species. A process is currently underway with ICTV for the new name of the monkeypox ເຊື້ອໄວຣັສ.
ເຊັ່ນດຽວກັນ, ປະຈຸບັນ WHO ກໍາລັງດໍາເນີນການປຶກສາຫາລືເປີດສໍາລັບຊື່ໃຫມ່ສໍາລັບພະຍາດ monkeypox. ການມອບຊື່ໃໝ່ໃຫ້ກັບພະຍາດທີ່ມີຢູ່ແລ້ວແມ່ນຄວາມຮັບຜິດຊອບຂອງ WHO ພາຍໃຕ້ການຈັດປະເພດພະຍາດສາກົນ ແລະ WHO Family of International Health Related Classifications (WHO-FIC).
