The information in this document has been produced by community organisations and public health experts. Although it addresses the group that has been most affected by the current outbreak to date - gay and bisexual men and other men who have sex with men - it applies to anyone who may be exposed to monkeypox infection.
This document is intended for health authorities working on RCCE in the context of the current monkeypox outbreak in Europe. It provides advice on approaches to the communication of risks and engagement of population groups based on the outbreak’s epidemiology and context, recommended preventive measures and people’s perceptions and behaviour.
Cases of monkeypox (MPX) acquired in the EU have recently been reported in nine EU Member States (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and the Netherlands).
