Knowledge of Mpox among secondary school students in Nigeria: a cross-sectional study
students in secondary schools in Enugu state, Nigeria, had an average level of knowledge of Mpox disease. We recommend that Mpox education and awareness creation should go beyond school settings. The efforts of stakeholders during the COVID-19 outbreak should be replicated for the prevention and control of Mpox disease in Nigeria.
