The Global Mpox Outbreak and Effective Vaccine Communication

David R Sayers. Mil Med. .

Abstract

The effectiveness and durability of vaccination to protect against localized anogenital mpox skin lesions is not well defined. Overestimating vaccine effectiveness against mild infection risks degrading vaccine confidence. Acknowledging and communicating vaccine unknowns and limitations is vital to direct mpox research, maintain vaccine confidence, and optimize uptake.
