INTERVIEW: Mpox outbreak prompts 'sex bubble' recommendation

Victoria's Chief Health Officer says people should keep records of their sexual partners for contact tracing as the state deals with a growing mpox outbreak. Victoria has recorded 76 cases over the past three months compared with only eight cases last year. Chief Health Officer Dr Clare Looker say people should keep the contact details of sexual partners and consider limiting their number of sexual contacts. Mpox spreads through close physical contact and it has mostly affected men who have sex with men. Two doses of vaccine at least 28 days apart offers people the best protection against mpox. But Professor of Public Health and Infection Prevention at Monash Health, Rhonda Stuart, told SBS's Greg Dyett people can still acquire mpox even if they're fully vaccinated.
