Evidence of Smallpox and Monkeypox Antibodies in Human Immunoglobulin Preparations: Implications for Post-Exposure Prophylaxis
2024-09-13
Abstract excerpt
The resurgence of mpox, particularly in regions where the virus was previously non-endemic, has reignited interest in the cross-protective potential of smallpox antibodies. Given the genetic similarity between the mpox virus and variola virus (the causative agent of smallpox), antibodies generated against smallpox may offer a degree of protection against mpox. This study investigates the presence of smallpox and m...
