Article Synopsis
- In response to a national mpox outbreak in England, children exposed to the virus were vaccinated with the MVA-BN smallpox vaccine to evaluate its safety and immune response.
- A study assessed 87 children who received the vaccine, finding no serious adverse events or mpox infections post-vaccination; reactogenicity data showed varying symptoms, with many reporting local reactions.
- Blood tests confirmed the presence of poxvirus IgG antibodies in all participants, indicating a robust immune response, with measures suggesting strong humoral responses to virus proteins at both one and three months after vaccination.
