We identified a cluster of mpox exposures among key populations in Kenya through retrospective serologic screening. We identified strong seropositivity among sex workers and gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men. These findings demonstrate the need for increased mpox surveillance among mpox-endemic and mpox-endemic-adjacent regions in Africa.
我们通过回顾性血清学筛查在肯尼亚的重点人群中发现了一组猴痘接触者。我们发现性工作者和男同性恋者、双性恋者和其他与男性发生性关系者的血清阳性率很高。这些发现表明,需要加强非洲猴痘流行地区和邻近地区的猴痘监测。
