Monkeypox
The vaccination is covered by German publik und private health insurances.
Our recommendations (August 18, 2024)
1. Gay and bisexual men with changing partners should get vaccinated.
2. 2 existing vaccinations with the Imvanex / Jynneos vaccine are sufficient, but mild infections may still occur
3. a booster vaccination is not necessary
4. People who have had monkeypox should still be vaccinated
Background
The European Health Safety Authority ECDC had estimated the risk of the new variant spreading in Europe as "very low" at the end of July. However, only a few hours after the Mpox health emergency was declared, Sweden reported the first case of clade Ib in Europe, according to the BBC.
According to a new risk assessment by the ECDC dated 16.8.2024, it is "highly likely" that there will be more Clade I cases in the EU and the European Economic Area. However, the likelihood of continuing chains of transmission in Europe is very low, as long as the cases are diagnosed quickly and control measures are implemented.
Since infections with the "clade IIb of Mpox" in Germany have so far occurred mainly in men who have sex with men (MSM), vaccination is recommended for MSM with frequently changing partners to protect against a severe course.
