Note: Based on the degree of mpox exposure, individuals were categorized into ‘high degree’ (unprotected direct contact with a confirmed case or high-risk environmental contact), ‘intermediate degree’ (unprotected exposure to infectious materials and droplets or potential exposure to aerosols) and ‘low degree’ (protected from physical or droplet exposure or no physical contact and minimal chance of exposure to droplets) groups.⁵
