Climatic determinants of monkeypox transmission: A multi-national analysis using generalized count mixed models.

Monkeypox (mpox) is a rare viral disease that can cause severe illness in humans, with outbreaks occurring primarily in central and western Africa. Well-coordinated and synchronized efforts are necessary to understand the factors involved in disease transmission and develop effective health interventions. The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between climate factors and daily mpox cases, as well as to identify the most suitable predictive model for transmission.
