PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Throughout the study period. Participants are enrolled over a period of 2 years 7 months, participants' outcomes are recorded at 28 days.

Population: In this observational study using routine care data (often retrospective), outcome data were not available for all participants. This is because routine care records available for research do not always include details of ICU or death within 28 days, the definition of severe mpox in this study. Hence of 1108 participants enrolled, 552 had data analysed for the primary outcome.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Throughout the study period. Participants are enrolled over a period of 2 years 7 months, participants' outcomes are recorded at 28 days.

Population: This was an observational study in children and adolescents aged \<18 years at time of mpox diagnosis. This outcome was included in case any pregnant participants were enrolled, however, none of the participants were reported to be pregnant at enrolment and so it was not possible to assess vertical transmission.

Amongst infants born to women infected with mpox during pregnancy, the number who are themselves diagnosed with mpox within 28 days of birth.
