Summary

The MOVIE-TRACE project includes two complementary observational studies designed to improve the understanding of Mpox virus infection and its transmission within affected communities. The MOVIE study aims to describe the dynamics of viral clearance in patients with confirmed Mpox. It measures how the viral load changes over time in different biological samples to inform decisions about patient management and isolation guidelines. The TRACE study focuses on understanding how mpox spreads from confirmed cases to their contacts. It will estimate the Secondary Attack Rate (SAR) and identify factors associated with transmission risk. The results will help guide public health strategies for contact tracing, vaccination, and outbreak control.
