During 2022, a global outbreak of mpox resulted primarily from human-to-human contact. The Virginia Department of Health (Richmond, VA, USA) implemented a contact tracing and symptom monitoring system for residents exposed to monkeypox virus, assessed their risk for infection, and offered interventions as needed.

In Thailand, platelet product from a blood donor was transfused to a recipient who had dengue. Two days later, the donor was confirmed to have monkeypox virus infection. Monkeypox virus DNA was undetectable in recipient specimens up to 2 weeks after transfusion. The recipient remained asymptomatic at 4 weeks of monitoring.
CDC’s National Wastewater Surveillance System (NWSS) program collects and displays wastewater data from communities across the United States.
A monthly update on Mpox infections provides details on the latest epidemiology and focus on a cruise ship outbreak. Excellent Bibliography on Mpox.
This notice is to notify clinicians and health departments about the occurrence, geographic spread, and sexually associated human-to-human transmission of Clade I Monkeypox virus (MPXV) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The findings suggest that, because virus stability is sufficient to support environmental MPXV transmission in healthcare settings, exposure and dose-response will be limiting factors for those transmission routes
Includes aboratory biosafety guidelines, testing, reporting procedures, use of PPE, specimen collection, packaging and transport, etc.
This is a global overview of the mpox epidemiological situation and response activities across a variety of domains such as epidemiology, clinical management and communications.
