This study used a network model to simulate a monkeypox epidemic among men who have sex with men. The findings suggest that unidentified infections play a crucial role in the epidemic, and vaccinating individuals at highest risk of infection is more effective in reducing the size of the epidemic compared to post-exposure vaccination of sexual partners.
We used a network model to simulate a monkeypox epidemic among men who have sex with men. Our findings suggest that unrecognized infections have an important impact on the epidemic, and that vaccination of individuals at highest risk of infection reduces epidemic size more than post-exposure vaccination of sexual partners.
