Data on monkeypox smallpox — Virus monkeypox

### **INFORMATION** The indicators are derived from data from the monitoring of monkeypox smallpox (Monkeypox virus infection) via mandatory declarations (DO) of “orthopoxviroses including smallpox”, transmitted to ARS and then centralised by Santé publique France. These mandatory declarations are completed by clinicians and/or biologists from a dedicated form. The information on certain reported cases, in particular at the beginning of the epidemic, may be partial as directly transmitted by the laboratories to the ARS. **Cases are presented per week of reporting.** A confirmed case of monkeypox smallpox is a person with a positive result of qPCR or RT-PCR specific to Monkeypox virus, or a positive result in generic qPCR of the genus Orthopoxvirus associated or not with a specific partial sequencing result of the Monkeypox virus. — Only confirmed cases for which the patient’s region of residence (or otherwise the reporting region) is known are indicated. Persons domiciled abroad are not counted. As a result, the sum of the cases indicated in the regions may be less than the total number of cases recorded in France. — The time limit for reporting cases may exceed 15 days in certain situations. **The indicators are updated weekly.** Coding of age classes: ‘0 = all ages’ < 14 = less than 15 years’ ‘44 = 15-44 years’ ‘64 = 45-64 years’ ‘65 = 65 years or older’ Sex coding: ‘0 = men and women’ ‘1 = men’ ‘2 = women’ **Taking into account the staff and in order to guarantee the anonymity of the persons, restitution at the departmental level or by age _and_ sex is currently not possible.**### 数据说明 本次统计的指标源自针对“包含天花的正痘病毒感染”开展法定申报（DO）所监测的猴痘（Monkeypox virus infection）相关数据：该数据先报送至地区卫生署（Agence Régionale de Santé, ARS），随后由法国公共卫生署（Santé publique France）完成集中整合。法定申报由临床医师和/或检验医师通过专用申报表单提交。部分上报病例（尤其是疫情暴发初期的病例）的信息可能不完整，因该类信息由实验室直接报送至ARS。 **病例按报告周进行统计展示。** 猴痘确诊病例指满足以下任一条件的个体：猴痘病毒特异性定量聚合酶链式反应（qPCR）或逆转录聚合酶链式反应（RT-PCR）检测结果呈阳性；或正痘病毒属通用定量聚合酶链式反应（qPCR）检测结果呈阳性，且伴随（或不伴随）猴痘病毒特异性部分测序结果。 — 仅统计患者居住地区已知的确诊病例；若无法获取居住地区，则采用报告地区。境外居住人员不计入统计范围。因此，各地区上报的病例总数可能低于法国境内记录的总病例数。 — 部分情况下，病例上报时限可能超过15天。**指标每周更新一次。** 年龄分组编码规则如下： ‘0 = 全年龄段’ ‘<14 = 14岁以下’ ‘44 = 15-44岁’ ‘64 = 45-64岁’ ‘65 = 65岁及以上’ 性别编码规则如下： ‘0 = 男、女均包含’ ‘1 = 男性’ ‘2 = 女性’ **考虑到数据涉及人员的隐私保护，为保障相关人员的匿名性，当前无法按省域级别或按年龄与性别组合的维度进行数据公示。**
