MPXV, a member of the Orthopoxviridae family, is categorized into two clades, Central Africa (I) and West Africa (II), each of which is further subdivided into subclades a and b. Clade I generally causes more serious illness and higher mortality rates, while Clade II results in milder illness. Historically, mpox epidemics were localized to specific regions and countries in Africa. Since 2022, the mpox epidemic, fueled by MPXV Clade IIb, has swiftly spread across various nations and regions, jeopardizing public health and safety. However, starting in 2024, Clade Ib gradually replaced Clade IIb. The notable genetic variation in Clade Ib may provide MPXV with new opportunities to evade the immune system and adapt to hosts. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), from 1 January 2022, to 24 November 2024, there were 117,663 confirmed cases and 2 probable cases, resulting in 263 deaths across 127 Member States in all six WHO regions. As of 9 January 2025, 12 countries outside Africa have reported imported MPXV Clade Ib cases, with secondary cases emerging in the United Kingdom, Germany, and China. Due to the incomplete development of a vaccine specifically for MPXV, the smallpox vaccine remains in use for preventing mpox or for emergency vaccination post-exposure. Therefore, the persistent spread of mpox is still a major concern, requiring greater awareness and vaccination efforts in populations at high risk. This paper aims to summarize the etiological characteristics, epidemic situation, and vaccine prevention efforts for mpox, offering a reference for managing this serious epidemic and ensuring effective scientific prevention and control.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/vaccines13050466","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,25]],"date-time":"2025-04-25T11:47:41Z","timestamp":1745581661000},"page":"466","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Recent Advances in Mpox Epidemic: Global Features and Vaccine Prevention Research"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Xinling","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dong-Ang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuting","family":"Qiu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ruiyao","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shiyu","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yue","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Keyi","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jinghua","family":"Yuan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xiaoping","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Key Laboratory of Artificial Organs and Computational Medicine in Zhejiang Province, Shulan International Medical College, Zhejiang Shuren University, Hangzhou 310015, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"World Health Organization (2022, May 18).
