BACKGROUND Exposure to information related mpox may be different perceptual processes in relation vaccination intent. OBJECTIVE This study examined the specific pathways by which exposure and influence intent through perceived risk of contracting among GBMSM Beijing Hong Kong. METHODS Data were obtained from a cross-sectional survey mpox-unvaccinated Kong (n=470) (n=519), conducted between November 2023 March 2024. Structural equation modeling was performed estimate direct indirect effects, multigroup structural used effect measure modification city. RESULTS positive significantly enhanced control increased intention via higher for following six months, particularly participants Conversely, negative threat perceptions, but did not consistently raise mpox. Differences notable, with those showing weaker associations mpox, despite levels number non-regular sex partners. CONCLUSIONS Positive boosts increasing where programs are accessible, as Tailored, stigma-free communication is crucial improving uptake, especially Mainland China, subsidized vaccines limited.

People with HIV (PWH) are disproportionally affected by mpox and at risk of severe complications. We assessed knowledge, adoption preventive behaviors, vaccination attitudes among PWH enrolled in a longitudinal cohort Washington, DC, the DC Cohort. conducted uni- multivariable analyses comparing participants status group, multinomial regression to identify factors associated vaccine acceptance. Among 430 PWH, 378 (87.9%) were aware mpox. 373 data, 101 (27.1%) vaccinated, 129 (34.6%) planned vaccinate, 143 (38.3%) did not plan vaccinate. The three groups differed significantly age, race, education, recent STI status, level worry (all p < 0.05). A higher proportion men who have sex (MSM) reported limiting their number sexual partners compared non-MSM (p 0.0001). Multinomial models vaccinated unvaccinated found mode transmission/gender, survey period High levels awareness observed this more MSM employing reduction behaviors being vaccinated. Ensuring that regardless gender, orientation, or understand risks may improve uptake.

Background/Objectives: Influenza and Streptococcus pneumoniae infections are common vaccine-preventable diseases to which people living with HIV (PLWH) may be more susceptible. This study aims investigate the incidence of confirmed influenza pneumococcal infections, determine rate (IR) factors associated vaccine uptake in a population virologically suppressed PLWH. Methods: We included 1031 PLWH from Copenhagen Comorbidity Infection (COCOMO) study. Data on vaccinations between 2015 2020 were collected nationwide registries. Incidence rates 95% confidence intervals (CIs) calculated, predictors explored using logistic regression. Results: The IR showed variation year ranged 0 (95% CI: 0.0, 7.6) 18.0 8.2, 34.1) per 1000 person-years at risk an overall 8.4 5.4, 12.3). was 5.5 3.9, 7.5).

Online questionnaires collected about Mpox-related awareness, perceptions behaviours. Multiple correspondence analysis identified participant profiles according to their level The outcome was variable grouping participants into three profiles: ‘strong endorsers’, ‘uninformed hesitant endorsers’ ‘indifferent objectors’. Multinomial logistic regression used estimate factors associated each profile.
