Increasing nonzoonotic human monkeypox virus (MPXV) infections urge reevaluation of inactivation strategies. We demonstrate efficient inactivation of MPXV by 2 World Health Organization‒recommended alcohol-based hand rub solutions. When compared with other (re)emerging enveloped viruses, MPXV displayed the greatest stability. Our results support rigorous adherence to use of alcohol-based disinfectants.
越来越多的非人畜共患猴痘病毒(MPXV)感染促使我们重新评估病毒的灭活策略。我们证明了两种世界卫生组织推荐的含酒精的手部消毒剂能够有效灭活 MPXV。与其他(再)出现的包膜病毒相比,MPXV 表现出最大的稳定性。我们的研究结果支持严格遵守使用含酒精的消毒剂。
