Therapeutic and vaccine development for human poxvirus infections have been neglected since the eradication of smallpox in 1980. However, a recent outbreak of monkeypox has highlighted the urgent need for effective antiviral agents and vaccines. This review discusses potential therapeutic options and strategies for managing human poxvirus infections worldwide, including tecovirimat, brincidofovir, cidofovir, vaccines, and intravenous vaccinia immune globulin.
Therapeutic and vaccine development for human poxvirus infections (e.g., monkeypox (mpox) virus, variola virus, molluscum contagiosum virus, orf virus) has been largely deserted, especially after the eradication of smallpox by 1980. Human mpox is a self-limited disease confined to Central and West Africa for decades. However, since April 2022, mpox has quickly emerged as a multi-country outbreak, urgently calling for effective antiviral agents and vaccines to control mpox. Here, this review highlights possible therapeutic options (e.g., tecovirimat, brincidofovir, cidofovir) and other strategies (e.g., vaccines, intravenous vaccinia immune globulin) for the management of human poxvirus infections worldwide.
