In response to the Mpox outbreak in Africa, and the recent World Health Organization (WHO) declaration that the current Mpox outbreak is a public health emergency of international concern, WHO has launched an international Strategic Preparedness and Response Plan (SPRP) document.

Full details of the WHO release on SPRP can be found here.

Further to the above, the Club has recently released RA 109 - Mpox – Guidance for shipboard operations, intended to assist the maritime industry in addressing the day to challenges of living and working with Mpox.
