Beginning in May, 2022, clusters of monkeypox virus infection have been observed in multiple countries, including the UK, Spain, Portugal, and the USA. 1 In response, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and WHO have increased surveillance for orthopoxvirus infections and have asked healthcare providers to be alert for patients who present with a rash-like illness that is consistent with human monkeypox. 1, 2We present an ongoing human judgment effort in collaboration with Metaculus—a forecasting technology platform—to make crowdsourced ensemble predictions of (1) the estimated number of reported human monkeypox infections globally as of Dec 31, 2022,(2) the estimated number of deaths due to human monkeypox globally as of Dec 31, 2022,(3) the number of monkeypox cases reported across Europe as of July 1, 2022,(4) the number of monkeypox cases reported in the USA as of July 1, 2022,(5) the number of monkeypox cases reported in Canada as of July 1, 2022,(6) the number of countries that will report at least one case of human monkeypox by July 31, 2022,(7) the number of US states that will report at least one case by July 1, 2022, and (8) whether WHO will declare the monkeypox outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) before Dec 31, 2022.
