Table 6.

Lists of settings of scenarios to projections of monkeypox infection.

Scenarios Settings
Scenario 1 Gathering events and no public health (PH) control measures are conducted.
• 10, 000 daily attendees, R0 = 1.5 (Baseline).
• 10, 000 daily attendees, R0 = 3.
• 100,000 daily attendees, R0 = 3.
Scenario 2 Gathering events (no interventions on the attendees) with 100,000 daily attendees, 10, 30 or 50 effective contacts in the gathering and R0 = 3.
• With testing, isolation, and PEPCT strategy, but without PrEPH.
• With testing, isolation, and PrEPH (90% HRG received 1 dose vaccine as of July 20), but without PEPCT strategy.
Scenario 3 Gathering events with 100,000 daily attendees (fully vaccinated), 10, 30 or 50 effective contacts in the gathering and R0 = 3.
• With testing, isolation, and PrEPH (60% HRG received 1 dose vaccine as of Jul 20) and PEPCT strategy.
• With testing, isolation, and PrEPH (90% HRG received 1 dose vaccine as of Jul 20), testing and isolation, but without PEPCT strategy.
Scenario 4 Gathering events (no interventions on the attendees) with 100,000 daily attendees, and R0 = 3. With testing, isolation, and without PEPCT strategy, and other settings.
Scenario 5 Gathering events (no interventions on the attendees) with 100,000 daily attendees, 50 effective contacts in the gathering and R0 = 3. With testing, isolation, vaccinating 30% close contact of confirmed cases in LRG, and other settings.
Some general setting and descriptions
Gathering event Starting from July 20 to August 1, 2022.
No PH control measures No interventions on monkeypox transmission, like testing, isolation, tracing or vaccination.
R0 = 1.5 or 3 The probability of per contact among HRG is 12.2 % or 24.5%.
Testing, isolation The testing and isolation strategy are implemented and the testing proportion of symptomatic infection in HRG and LRG is 50% and 30% respectively.
PEPCT strategy Vaccinating the 60% close contact of confirmed cases in HRG and 30% close contact of confirmed cases in LRG.
Other settings The time from individuals developing symptoms, to seeking medical help and then being tested and isolated is 7 days, and the time for tracing and vaccinating the close contacts of confirmed cases is 7 days, the daily transition rate from LRG to HRG during the gathering is 0.0005, and the proportion of individuals adhering to the isolation strategy is 40%, and the 10% of attendees is LRG individuals.
