Em junho de 2022, o Brasil registrou seu primeiro caso confirmado de varíola dos macacos em São Paulo, marcando a chegada de um vírus que, até então, circulava sobretudo em regiões endêmicas da África. Um homem de 41 anos, recém-chegado da Espanha, tornou-se o ponto de entrada de uma doença que já se espalhava por 31 países ao redor do mundo. O que inquietou as autoridades não foi apenas esse caso isolado, mas a possibilidade de que cadeias de transmissão local já estivessem se formando silenciosamente — antes mesmo de o país ter tempo de se preparar.
