Infection Prevention and Control Summary for Mpox Vaccination

Standard Precautions

• Apply standard precautions during mpox vaccination activities.
• Recipients must have no signs or symptoms of mpox.
• Perform hand hygiene following WHO guidelines, including before vaccine preparation and after each administration; place hand hygiene stations at entrances, exits, and vaccination stations; encourage individuals to wash hands upon arrival and exit.

Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

• PPE not required if skin is intact; assess exposure risk to broken skin or body fluids.
• Consider using single-use, non-sterile gloves for non-intact skin, ensuring they are changed between each individual.

Injection Safety

• Use safety-engineered devices where available, such as auto-disable syringes.
• Ensure vial sterilization by wiping septum with 70% alcohol and using sterile needles; prepare injections in clean areas and label/discard multi-dose vials per protocol.

Environmental Cleaning, Disinfection, and Waste Management

• Clean vaccination sites daily with products effective against monkeypox virus (e.g., 0.05% chlorine), focusing on high-touch areas and waste disposal.
• Manage waste securely, including puncture-proof containers for sharps and vials; minimize unnecessary PPE waste and have adequate plans for safe delivery and disposal.

Engineering Controls at Vaccination Sites

• Ensure ample space in waiting areas to prevent overcrowding, and provide adequate ventilation (mechanical, natural, or hybrid) in all relevant zones.
• Set up a dedicated screening area for symptom assessment upon entry.
