Serological evidence of clade Ib Mpox transmission by sex workers and within household in South Kivu, DRC

Abstract excerpt

Understanding secondary attack rates is a key knowledge gap in the ongoing clade Ib mpox virus (MPXV) outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Here, we report the first cross-sectional serological study to investigate local MPXV clade Ib transmission in South Kivu, DRC. Seropositivity was defined as a detectable titer in a cell lysate-based screening ELISA and confirmation by virus neutralization test....
