Monkeypox virus is transmitted from one person to another by close contact with rashes, scabs, body fluids, respiratory droplets, and contaminated materials such as clothing, bedding, or towels.

The proportion of patients who have died has varied between 0 and 11% in documented cases and has been higher among young children. Anyone can get or pass on viruses.

Lab result shows that GloveOn Protect can kill up to 99.000% of Modified Vaccinia Virus. The report is based on a test strain modified from ASTM D7907-14 Standard Test Methods for the determination of virucidal efficacy on the surface of GloveOn Protect Antimicrobial nitrile powder free medical examination gloves.

By referring to the published information online from Therapeutic Goods Administration, Australia, surrogate viruses, such as Vaccinia virus, can be used to justify a Monkeypox efficacy claim.
