      I'd assume so but I figure a regular washing would be fine

        It may or may not be. Monkeypox is typically only killed at temperatures markedly higher than most washing machines and dryers can reach. However, it may be the case that the use of detergent will allow the virus to break down at a lower temperature. This latter bit is information I've seen repeated but without any source.

      I have, in the past, just brought a sleeping back and put that on top of the hotel bed because my sleeping bag might be caked in forest and god knows what but at least it's outside forest god knows what and not whatever is on the hotel beds.

        An alternative would be to just take off the bed covers and sleep on the linens as those are washed every visitor
