Evaluation of the knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women undergoing preoperative assessment in the anesthesia clinic regarding Monkeypox virus disease in Turkey
The findings of this study indicate that while pregnant women demonstrate moderate knowledge and relatively positive attitudes toward monkeypox, their willingness to receive vaccination remains low. Tailored educational and counseling interventions are essential to improve awareness and vaccine acceptance in this vulnerable population.
