Description

BackgroundMpox has re-emerged globally as a public health threat, with implications for low-resource settings where surveillance and response systems remain fragile. Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT) hosts large mobile populations and international institutions, heightening outbreak vulnerability. Evidence on sub-national preparedness capacity is limited. This study assessed Mpox awareness, preparedness, and institutional response capabilities across the FCT using a mixed-methods approach.
