ABSTRACT
We investigated a secondary school (11-16 year-olds), a primary school (5-11 year-olds), reception year (4-5 year-olds) and a nursery (2-5 year-olds) following confirmed monkeypox in an adult in each educational setting during June and July 2022. MVA-BN vaccine was offered up to 14 days post exposure to 186 children <â¯12 years and 21 were vaccinated. No secondary cases occurred among at least 340 exposed students and more than 100 exposed staff during the 28-day follow-up period.
