Dear Editor, Mellon and colleagues reported mpox virus (MPXV) DNA in air samples from a hospital room dedicated to mpox-infected patients. 1 However, longitudinal analysis of serial self-taken samples, collected contemporaneously from the same patient with mpox, have not been well described. Such data would help clinicians and policymakers to understand how long infected patients may continue to emit virus following infection, and through which route. We therefore performed a prospective longitudinal analysis of patients with mpox, with differing clinical severities of infection.
