Scientists track mpox survivors for years to unlock immunity secrets

NCT ID NCT05879965

Summary

This study aims to understand the long-term health effects after a mpox infection and to see how long the body's immune protection lasts in people who had the disease or received the smallpox vaccine. Researchers will follow about 345 participants, including former mpox patients, vaccinated individuals, and healthy volunteers, for up to 5 years. They will collect health questionnaires and samples like blood and saliva to track symptoms and measure immune system memory.
