Rao, MD, with the Poxvirus and Rabies Branch of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), updated the global picture Wednesday at IDWeek: As of October 14, the confirmed worldwide cases number 73,288, with more than one third of them (27,317) in the United States.

"There's a lot of emphasis right now at CDC to try to understand these spreads, whether they are household (transmission) or another contact. We know that some of the women have had sexual contact with men who were diagnosed with monkeypox," Rao said. Tucker, De’Anthony Melton, and Danuel House Jr. In children under age 12, direct skin-to-skin contact with household members seems to be the source, she said.

"We are working to try to understand the exposures that have occurred to those individuals and whether transmission has occurred person-to-person," Rao said. Severe Cases Among Immunocompromised Also of concern are people with compromised immune systems owing to advanced HIV or organ or stem cell transplants. I’ve seen it in real life."It not a surprise that compared to 2018 we’ve seen this rise," he added. Among immunocompromised persons, Rao said,"we're seeing large necrotic lesions affecting a large percentage of body surface, lesions that continue to develop over weeks."

Assessing the size and appearance of the lesions is important to understanding whether patients could develop severe infection, she said. Differences From Past Epidemics Titanji said the current outbreak has some differences from historic outbreaks. The incubation period, for instance, has tended to be shorter than in previous outbreaks — now 7-10 days, with a range of 5-14 days instead of a range of up to 21 days in previous outbreaks. 17, 2022, in Marietta, Ga. There are also more cases of presentations with only single lesions, which were infrequent in past epidemics, she said. The scope of suspected cases has also broadened, with changing clinical features. "We have expanded the clinical descriptions to include presentations that involve isolated rectal presentation — individuals presenting solely with rectal pain as the primary manifestation of monkeypox — or presenting with a sore throat as the only manifestation," she said. Expanding the case definition will help identify who should be tested. "Monkeypox is an incredible clinical mimic," Titanji said."We have to see if this gets sustained throughout the entire early voting period. "The rash can really take the form of a lot of the things we encounter on a regular basis in ID. It's important to always have a low index of suspicion to test patients when they fit the right epidemiological profile." Vaccine Strategy Has Evolved Brett Petersen, MD, MPH, captain of the US Public Health Service with the CDC, said that Jynneos, licensed by the US Food and Drug Administration, continues to be the primary vaccine for monkeypox. However, the strategy has changed. Whereas the initial vaccine strategy was to administer the vaccine after known exposure, the guidance now includes vaccinating after"both known and presumed exposures, as described in the eligible populations. " It's now been expanded even further to include preexposure inoculations for a wide group of people at greater risk, he explained Early data from the CDC indicate that the Jynneos vaccine is effective. In a report last month , the CDC found that among 32 US jurisdictions, monkeypox incidence was much higher among at-risk, unvaccinated people for whom vaccination is recommended than among those who got the Jynneos vaccine. "Unvaccinated people had 14 times the risk of monkeypox disease compared to people who were vaccinated," the CDC reported. Asked about the end goal for monkeypox, Petersen said,"Our goal should be elimination. I think that is an achievable goal, but it will depend on a lot of factors and a lot of continued public health efforts. " Rao, Titanji, and Petersen declared no relevant financial relationships.
