New Irish Medical Journal study into the spread of Mpox in Ireland between May 2022 and May 2023

one of the people infected had 75 sexual partners in the previous 21 days. The median number of sexual partners for those infected was two over the previous 21 days.

Looked at 229 people were infected over these 12 months: 226 male and 3 female. Almost 99% identified as gay, bisexual or men who have sex with men.

Just under a third of them were originally from Latin America.

Over 28% were HIV positive, while just over one in ten of those infected were admitted to hospital.
