Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

General objective: to measure the preparedness of pharmacists and medical interns about monkeypox

Specific objectives: to evaluate the level of knowledge among pharmacists and medical interns about monkeypox treatment and nature of disease

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Globally, the ongoing outbreak was declared as a public health emergency. After the first laboratory-confirmed case of monkeypox was reported in Singapore on May 2019, countries all over the world started to strengthen disease surveillance systems. One challenge in preventing monkeypox is a lack of knowledge, particularly among healthcare workers.

Study significance: to examine in detail the preparedness and the perception of pharmacists and medical interns about monkeypox and to evaluate the level of knowledge about monkeypox management and nature of disease.
