About the study The present study described monkeypox infections observed following a single dose of MVA-BN. From the electronic medical record , all instances of monkeypox-positive cases during the study period were retrieved. The EMR and a study of a statewide computerized database for the exchange of immunization records were then used to determine the patient's vaccination status.
Results During the trial period, 7,339 people at HBH received their first dosage of MVA-BN, while 400 patients tested positive for monkeypox. Among 90 individuals who tested monkeypox-positive a minimum of one day after immunization, 73.5% displayed viral loads less than 200 copies/mL, 91% were cisgender, and 37.8% had HIV.
