So, question is: will China impose Zero-Monkeypox restrictions if the number of cases spike?

To know is essentially the same as not knowing. The only thing that occurs is the rearrangement of atoms in your brain.

TL;DR – cases declining globally, but U.S. will likely continue to see low-level transmission, indefinitely.

Why Did the Mpox (Monkeypox) Epidemic Wane? Belgian Researchers Propose Theory
April 13 , 2023
Introduction:
Read more here: https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/985910(European Congress of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases via Eurekalert) Did the recent mpox (formerly known as monkeypox) outbreak end because of “network immunity”? That’s the theory being put forward by Belgian researchers at this year’s European Congress of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases (ECCMID) in Copenhagen, Denmark (15-18 April).
2022 saw a global outbreak of mpox, a viral infection that had not previously been documented as having sustained person-to-person transmission outside of Africa. There were more than 85,000 cases worldwide, with men who have sex with men at highest risk.
Cases rose rapidly from May 2022, before starting to decline a few months later. The reasons the outbreak waned are unclear.
Researcher Dr Christophe Van Dijck, of the Institute of Tropical Medicine, Antwerp, Belgium, says: “The rapid rise in cases in May 2022 was likely caused by efficient viral transmission during sexual contact between individuals with high partner turnover in a dense and geographically extended sexual network.
“Insufficient knowledge of the disease as well as asymptomatic and pre-symptomatic transmission may have enhanced disease spreading. “
Don't mourn, organize.
