<a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/health/new-case-mpox-detected-uk-30876004">https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/health/new-case-mpox-detected-uk-30876004</a>
&nbsp;
A new case of Mpox has been confirmed in the UK, the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has said.
The latest case of Clade Ib Mpox is the seventh confirmed case since October 2024 after a sixth patient <a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/uk-news/new-mpox-case-detected-uk-30823540">was admitted to hospital last week</a>.
<a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/news/ukhsa-detects-first-case-of-clade-ib-mpox?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&amp;utm_source=d72f8bd1-0516-4336-9e7d-b4f8a791ba9a&amp;utm_content=immediately">The UKHSA says</a> the infected patient had recently travelled to Uganda and that the risk to the UK population "remains low". The UKHSA and <a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/all-about/nhs">NHS</a> says it will not be disclosing any further details about the infected person.
Professor Susan Hopkins, Chief Medical Adviser at UKHSA, said: "The risk to the UK population remains low. Close contacts have been identified and offered appropriate advice in order to reduce the chance of further spread."
Mpox, previously known as monkeypox, is a rare infection most commonly found in parts of central and east Africa.
There is currently community transmission of the virus in Uganda, which has so far recorded <a href="https://www.afro.who.int/countries/uganda/publication/mpox-outbreak-uganda-situation-update-22-january-2025">2,209 confirmed Mpox cases</a> and 13 deaths since July 2024.
The Clade Ib variant is a new form of the virus, the which the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared as a global health emergency in August.
WHO says common symptoms of Mpox include a skin rash or lesions which can last two to four weeks, as well as a fever, headache, muscle aches, back pain, low energy and swollen lymph nodes.
<a href="https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/mpox/">The NHS says</a> Mpox can be passed on from person to person through:
Close physical contact with Mpox blisters or scabs
Touching clothing, bedding or towels used by someone with Mpox
The coughs or sneezes of a person with Mpox when they're close to you

JMP Securities Reiterates Market Outperform on Inovio Pharmaceuticals, Maintains $18 Price Target

Shares of Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INO#NASDAQ">INO</a>) pulled back by 5.3% to $2.16 during Wednesday's session, following a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42857690/why-inovio-pharmaceuticals-ino-stock-is-skyrocketing">strong rally</a> Tuesday.
The decline may be attributed to profit-taking, as investors assess renewed focus on respiratory illnesses, with increased cases of influenza, COVID-19 and RSV <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/25/01/42854890/us-records-first-human-bird-flu-death-high-levels-of-respiratory-illnesses-vaccine-stocks-rally">driving interest</a> in vaccine developers.
What Else: Inovio's lead candidate, INO-4800, a DNA-based COVID-19 vaccine, remains a key focus among vaccine-makers, particularly as alternative vaccine technologies gain traction. The company is also advancing its broader pipeline, which includes vaccines for RSV, MERS and other pathogens.
While Wednesday's profit-taking reflects typical market volatility following a sharp rise, Inovio's long-term prospects remain tied to its ability to advance its portfolio and demonstrate the effectiveness of its DNA-based vaccine platform in addressing global health challenges.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy INO Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Inovio Pharmaceuticals&#8217; case, it is in the Health Care sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, INO has a 52-week high of $14.75 and a 52-week low of $1.74.

What's Going On With Inovio Pharmaceuticals (INO) Stock?

Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INO#NASDAQ">INO</a>) shares are trading higher by 17.9% to $2.27 Tuesday afternoon amid growing concerns about <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/respiratory-viruses/data/index.html#cdc_data_surveillance_section_2-weekly-national-summary">respiratory illnesses</a>, including seasonal influenza, COVID-19 and RSV. Increased attention to vaccine and therapeutic solutions this week has increased interest in biotechnology stocks focused on infectious diseases.
The Louisiana Department of Health also <a href="https://www.ldh.la.gov/news/H5N1-death">reported</a> the first U.S. H5N1 death, a patient over 65 with underlying conditions who contracted the virus from birds, with no further cases or person-to-person spread. This may increase demand for avian flu vaccines and research.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy INO Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Inovio Pharmaceuticals &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy ‘fractional shares,' which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
In the case of Inovio Pharmaceuticals, which is trading at $2.33 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 42.92 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to ‘go short' a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
