After \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11939819/when-mpox-hit-community-clinics-stepped-in-why-hasnt-the-government-paid-them-back-yet\">a mass vaccination effort led by organizers from the LGBTQ+ community\u003c/a> and public health officials, the rate of mpox infections dropped to virtually zero in California — but now, the average number of cases reported every week around the state has more than doubled from the summer months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keep reading for what we know about the recent rise in mpox cases in the Bay Area and across the state, recommendations from local public health officials, and where you can find an mpox vaccine in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jump straight to:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"#mpoxvaccinenearme\">Where can I find an mpox vaccine?\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"#mpoxsymptoms\">How does mpox spread, and what are the symptoms?\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2>What are mpox cases like around the state and in the Bay Area right now?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11949180/mpox-and-the-bay-area-why-health-officials-are-again-urging-vigilance-and-vaccines\">Bay Area health officials had originally been concerned about the potential for a resurgence of mpox\u003c/a>, a viral disease which spreads mainly from close physical contact, much earlier this year ahead of Pride festivities in June. Fears of a 2022-style outbreak did not materialize, and case counts stayed very low: From February to August 2023, the average weekly case number across California was approximately 1 to 7 cases, according to data from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Oct. 31, CDPH Director Dr. Tomás J. Aragón announced that \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/OPA/Pages/NR23-031.aspx\">the agency was now “beginning to see an uptick in mpox cases across the state.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to CDPH data, the number of mpox cases in California has “significantly increased,” up from this summer’s low to “approximately 17 cases per week in the most recent three-week period” (with available data being from Sept. 20 to Oct. 10).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CDPH also noted a rise in the number of California counties reporting mpox cases: 15 counties in that most recent three-week period, compared to 11 counties in the three weeks before that. Similar increases, said the agency, are also being seen nationwide in states “including \u003ca href=\"https://kingcounty.gov/en/legacy/depts/health/communicable-diseases/health-care-providers/advisories/2023/11-oct\">Washington\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncdhhs.gov/news/press-releases/2023/10/17/ncdhhs-encourages-mpox-vaccination-those-higher-risk-after-recent-cases-reported\">North Carolina\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://health.hawaii.gov/news/newsroom/doh-reports-two-additional-mpox-cases/\">Hawaii\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What about the Bay Area? In a statement, the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH) said that \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/data/mpox-case-counts\">mpox cases in the city have risen too\u003c/a>, from only 7 cases in August to 20 cases in September and at least 20 cases in October. SFDPH noted that “some Bay Area counties have seen increased incidence rates in the last several months,” too, as had other large cities around the United States, albeit at slightly different times compared to San Francisco’s rise. Los Angeles said SFDPH saw its mpox increase in June, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.chicagohan.org/alert-detail/-/alert-details/46678186\">mpox cases increased in Chicago in May\u003c/a>. The latter was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11949180/mpox-and-the-bay-area-why-health-officials-are-again-urging-vigilance-and-vaccines\">the outbreak that initially prompted Bay Area health officials to urge renewed vigilance against mpox\u003c/a> ahead of Pride.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How much should I worry about this rise in mpox cases?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“While the average number of weekly cases remains low compared with last year at this time, mpox continues to circulate in California, and recent data indicate that transmission levels are increasing,” CDPH said. SFDPH also stresses that their count of October cases is still being completed, and this number may rise further.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CDPH noted two important things about this latest rise in mpox case numbers. The first: This latest increase appears to be fueled more by “ongoing transmission within sexual networks” than by people traveling to or from specific areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Importantly, most cases did not report travel or attending any specific event,” CDPH said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFDPH has been more open to the notion that travel and event attendance could have played at least some role in this latest mpox rise, noting that during this outbreak, transmission “is primarily related to intimate contact during oral or anal sex” and that “when people are connecting more frequently or with new sexual partners, there are more opportunities for mpox to spread.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Things like late summer travel, gatherings, and events may be associated with changes in sexual practices that can lead to increases in cases,” SFDPH said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Joe Hawkins, CEO and co-founder of the Oakland LGBTQ Community Center\"]‘People are still contracting mpox, and this will continue. Because where there’s smoke, there’s fire, and the opportunity to spread mpox is still very high.’[/pullquote]The second highlight from CDPH was the role of the two-dose mpox vaccine and what it does (and doesn’t) do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CPDPH said that since early September, over 40% of people with a documented case of mpox had at least one dose of the vaccine. A lower proportion of people, 31%, had two doses. This, said CDPH, highlights that “while mpox vaccine is effective at reducing infections and disease severity, infections after vaccination are possible and testing is warranted among vaccinated persons.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“With this, we are reminding and encouraging all Californians to be aware of the signs and symptoms of mpox and to take preventive measures, including vaccination, to protect against severe illness,” Aragón said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFDPH said that more than 50,000 doses of the mpox vaccine had been administered to date, but “more than 40% of those who received their first dose” are due for their second dose. If case rates are lower in people with two shots of the mpox vaccine than those with one shot, is there a reason people are not seeking out that second shot?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joe Hawkins, CEO and co-founder of the\u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandlgbtqcenter.org/clinic\"> Oakland LGBTQ Community Center, which offers mpox shots at its clinic\u003c/a>, said that the “huge number of people out there who received their first dose and who never came back for the second dose” might have something to do with this summer’s low case rates — which stayed low at least in part \u003cem>because\u003c/em> of vaccinations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that when people see that the news reports show that the cases have dropped dramatically, I just think … and this is obviously me just assuming, that people don’t feel that the risk is still out there,” Hawkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But people are still contracting mpox, and this will continue,” he stressed. “Because where there’s smoke, there’s fire, and the opportunity to spread mpox is still very high.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How mpox cases are tracked around the country:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/Mpox-Data.aspx\">Mpox case data for California\u003c/a> via the California Department of Public Health (CDPH)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/information/monkeypox-cases\">Mpox case data for San Francisco\u003c/a> via SFDPH\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/response/2022/us-map.html\">Mpox case data for the United States\u003c/a> via the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"#tellus\">Tell us: What else do you need to know about right now?\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003ch2>Who is most at risk from mpox?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Anyone can get mpox, but SFDPH said that the 2022 mpox outbreak predominantly affected communities of gay and bisexual men and men who have sex with men (MSM), as well as trans and nonbinary people who have sex with men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This 2022 outbreak was “unique compared to what had been known about mpox previously,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11949180/mpox-and-the-bay-area-why-health-officials-are-again-urging-vigilance-and-vaccines\">Dr. Stephanie Cohen, director of HIV prevention for the Population Health Division at SFDPH, told KQED earlier this year.\u003c/a> That’s because the virus “really seemed to spread through sexual transmission and [was] associated with sexual activities,” she said. \u003ca href=\"#mpoxsymptoms\">Read more about how mpox spreads. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you look at our national data [from 2022], almost 97% of cases in the U.S. were in people who are cis men,” Cohen said. “There were very, very few cases in cisgender women and also very few cases — about 0.08% — in children under the age of 16.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Should I get the mpox vaccine?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The mpox vaccine is a two-dose series, with roughly a month between doses, and public health officials are urging people to seek vaccination in light of this most recent rise in cases.

Fears of a 2022-style outbreak did not materialize, and case counts stayed very low: From February to August 2023, the average weekly case number across California was approximately 1 to 7 cases, according to data from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But on Oct. 31, CDPH Director Dr. Tomás J. Aragón announced that \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/OPA/Pages/NR23-031.aspx\">the agency was now “beginning to see an uptick in mpox cases across the state.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to CDPH data, the number of mpox cases in California has “significantly increased,” up from this summer’s low to “approximately 17 cases per week in the most recent three-week period” (with available data being from Sept. 20 to Oct. 10).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CDPH also noted a rise in the number of California counties reporting mpox cases: 15 counties in that most recent three-week period, compared to 11 counties in the three weeks before that. Similar increases, said the agency, are also being seen nationwide in states “including \u003ca href=\"https://kingcounty.gov/en/legacy/depts/health/communicable-diseases/health-care-providers/advisories/2023/11-oct\">Washington\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://www.ncdhhs.gov/news/press-releases/2023/10/17/ncdhhs-encourages-mpox-vaccination-those-higher-risk-after-recent-cases-reported\">North Carolina\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://health.hawaii.gov/news/newsroom/doh-reports-two-additional-mpox-cases/\">Hawaii\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What about the Bay Area? In a statement, the San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH) said that \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/data/mpox-case-counts\">mpox cases in the city have risen too\u003c/a>, from only 7 cases in August to 20 cases in September and at least 20 cases in October. SFDPH noted that “some Bay Area counties have seen increased incidence rates in the last several months,” too, as had other large cities around the United States, albeit at slightly different times compared to San Francisco’s rise. Los Angeles said SFDPH saw its mpox increase in June, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.chicagohan.org/alert-detail/-/alert-details/46678186\">mpox cases increased in Chicago in May\u003c/a>. The latter was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11949180/mpox-and-the-bay-area-why-health-officials-are-again-urging-vigilance-and-vaccines\">the outbreak that initially prompted Bay Area health officials to urge renewed vigilance against mpox\u003c/a> ahead of Pride.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How much should I worry about this rise in mpox cases?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“While the average number of weekly cases remains low compared with last year at this time, mpox continues to circulate in California, and recent data indicate that transmission levels are increasing,” CDPH said. SFDPH also stresses that their count of October cases is still being completed, and this number may rise further.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CDPH noted two important things about this latest rise in mpox case numbers. The first: This latest increase appears to be fueled more by “ongoing transmission within sexual networks” than by people traveling to or from specific areas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Importantly, most cases did not report travel or attending any specific event,” CDPH said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFDPH has been more open to the notion that travel and event attendance could have played at least some role in this latest mpox rise, noting that during this outbreak, transmission “is primarily related to intimate contact during oral or anal sex” and that “when people are connecting more frequently or with new sexual partners, there are more opportunities for mpox to spread.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Things like late summer travel, gatherings, and events may be associated with changes in sexual practices that can lead to increases in cases,” SFDPH said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

A partir del 6 de septiembre, todos los hombres gay, bisexuales y que tienen sexo con otros hombres podrán recibir la vacuna — siempre y cuando vivan en San Francisco.

Podría asumir que la viruela del mono está relacionada a la viruela pero no es así.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jynneos estaba disponible originalmente para personas mayores de 18 años, pero el 9 de agosto, la Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos (FDA por sus siglas en inglés) anunció la autorización de uso de emergencia (EUA por sus siglas en inglés) y permitió a los proveedores \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/monkeypox-update-fda-authorizes-emergency-use-jynneos-vaccine-increase-vaccine-supply\">administrar la vacuna contra la viruela del mono a jóvenes menores de 18 años\u003c/a> que “presentan un alto riesgo de contagio por la viruela del mono”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si es elegible para vacunarse contra la viruela del mono, hay dos escenarios en los que puede recibir la dosis:\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Si sospecha o está seguro que estuvo expuesto a la viruela del mono \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">…\u003c/span>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>En este caso, la vacuna es administrada con la esperanza de no contraer la enfermedad, o al menos, reducir sus síntomas.

Previamente, Jynneos sólo se ofrecía a personas que estaban seguras, o al menos sospechaban, de haber estado expuestos al virus. Pero los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC por sus siglas en inglés) han actualizado sus pautas en torno a la vacunación contra la viruela del mono. Este enfoque es conocido también como \u003ca href=\"https://espanol.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/index.html?CDC_AA_refVal=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fspanish%2Fmonkeypox%2Findex.html\">profilaxis posexposición, o PEP++\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A los laboratoristas quienes frecuentemente cuentan con muestras del virus de la viruela del mono también se les ofrece la vacuna.

Pero la doctora Susan Philip, funcionaria de salud de San Francisco, ha confirmado que “no existe algún daño” si recibe la segunda dosis de Jynneos después del marco de 28 días, y que ese retraso en la segunda dosis, mientras el suministro es bajo, “nos permitirá usar la vacuna eficientemente”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>¿Cuánto tiempo tendrá que esperar alguien para recibir la segunda dosis? En la clínica de vacunación del Hospital General Zuckerberg de San Francisco (ZSFG por sus siglas en inglés) los pacientes han sido informados por el personal del hospital que su segunda inyección puede tardar, de manera segura, hasta dos años.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>El \u003ca href=\"https://profiles.ucsf.edu/peter.chin-hong\">doctor Peter Chin-Hong\u003c/a>, especialista en enfermedades infecciosas del Centro Médico en UCSF, confirma que “es seguro no recibir la segunda dosis de la vacuna en el marco de los 28 días” y “algunos datos sugieren que esperar hasta dos años estaría bien”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Claro, es probable, que no tengamos que esperar tanto”, dijo Chin-Hong, y agregó que la segunda inyección puede servir como una dosis de refuerzo. “La primera dosis es realmente buena (85% a 90% de protección después de cuatro días) y es equivalente a dos dosis de vacuna mRNA para COVID-19”, dijo Ching- Hong.

Pero si recibió una vacuna contra la viruela antes de 1972, es probable que se pregunte si aún está protegido, puesto que el virus de la viruela del mono está relacionado con el virus de la viruela (aunque la viruela del mono es menos severa y menos contagiosa que la viruela).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La doctora Susan Philip, funcionaria de San Francisco, dice que vacunarse contra la viruela “tendría cierta protección cruzada contra la viruela del mono” y “parece que las personas que han sido vacunadas contra la viruela en el pasado poseen una protección parcial, por lo que puede que no tengan un caso tan grave de la viruela del mono”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero si te vacunaste contra la viruela antes de 1972 ¿todavía tienes inmunidad contra la viruela del mono? Hoy, eso parece incierto. Andrea McCollum, líder del equipo de epidemiología del poxvirus en la división de patología y microorganismos patógenos de graves consecuencias de los CDC dice que “\u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2022/05/19/a-cdc-expert-answers-questions-on-monkeypox/\">esto es algo que realmente no hemos descubierto en personas que se vacunaron [contra la viruela] 50 años antes, 60 años antes\u003c/a>”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Philip enfatiza que dado que una vacuna histórica contra la viruela “puede que no sea una protección completa” contra la viruela del mono, el Departamento de Salud Pública de San Francisco y los CDC recomiendan que aunque recibió una vacuna contra la viruela cuando era niño, definitivamente debe buscar una vacuna contra la viruela del mono si estuvo expuesto a este virus para “obtener la mayor protección posible”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11924194\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11924194\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2.jpg\" alt=\"Una persona sostiene una botella de medicamentos en su mano.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1281\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">TPOXX (también conocido como Tecovirimat o ST-246) se usa para tratar a las personas que experimentan los peores síntomas de la viruela del mono.

Algunos médicos administran el medicamento TPOXX (también conocido como Tecovirimat o ST-246) a pacientes que experimentan síntomas graves de viruela del mono. Tecovirimat suele ser un tratamiento de dos semanas y puede administrarse a través de una cápsula o una inyección intravenosa. El medicamento dificulta al virus que intenta infectar nuevas células, lo cual limita el crecimiento de la infección.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“La mayoría de las personas mejorarán por sí solas, pero algunas necesitarán tratamiento”, dice el doctor Ching-Hong de UCSF. Entre las personas elegibles para el tratamiento se incluyen aquellos con el sistema inmunológico vulnerable, personas embarazadas y niños menores de 8 años.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Las personas que no poseen esas características de riesgo pero contraen la viruela del mono pueden recibir tratamiento, dice Chin-Hong. Esto incluye a aquellos que desarrollan una enfermedad oral prolongada, pues les resulta muy difícil comer y beber. “Es como tener un montón de úlceras en la boca”, dice Ching-Hong. Aquellos que desarrollan la enfermedad de manera en el área rectal o cerca de los ojos también pueden recibir tratamiento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>TPOXX solo ha sido aprobado por la FDA para tratar infecciones de viruela. Los CDC, sin embargo, permiten que los médicos receten TPOXX para el tratamiento de la viruela del mono a través de un proceso conocido como “protocolo de nuevo fármaco en investigación para amplio acceso”. Un médico deberá presentar una solicitud a la FDA y el paciente debe estar dispuesto a firmar un formulario bajo su consentimiento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La doctora Philip de San Francisco dice que los funcionarios de la ciudad se están asociando con los proveedores de salud para “ampliar el acceso de las personas en toda la ciudad, ya sea que estén afiliados o no al sistema de salud”. La doctora agrega que depende de los CDC agilizar el proceso para que los médicos puedan solicitar TPOXX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Otro aspecto que los pacientes deben considerar es hablar con su médico sobre cualquier dolor que sientan y dónde. Algunos pacientes con la viruela del mono\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/health/lesions-debilitating-pain-monkeypox-experience\"> consideran el dolor de los sarpullidos como algo “insoportable”\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Existen muchas opciones que pueden aliviar o al menos reducir el dolor si se tiene la viruela del mono. Los médicos pueden recetar un tratamiento que respondería al dolor asociado con las lesiones presentes en la cara, o los brazos, la boca, o el área genital o rectal del paciente, dice el doctor Chin-Hong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“El tratamiento no solo se trata de vacunas y medicamentos. El tratamiento también se enfoca en los síntomas específicos que presenta el paciente”, dice. “Así que asegúrese de pedir ayuda a su profesional de la salud porque puede haber cosas que ayuden a sentir menos dolor”.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>\u003ca id=\"preguntas\">\u003c/a>¿Qué otras preguntas tiene sobre la viruela del mono?\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>¿Tiene más preguntas sobre la viruela del mono y no encuentra una respuesta en esta publicación o en \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/monkeypox\">nuestras guías que explican los síntomas y cómo se propaga el virus\u003c/a>?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puede usar el cuadro a continuación para enviar una pregunta.

Pero la doctora Susan Philip, funcionaria de salud de San Francisco, ha confirmado que “no existe algún daño” si recibe la segunda dosis de Jynneos después del marco de 28 días, y que ese retraso en la segunda dosis, mientras el suministro es bajo, “nos permitirá usar la vacuna eficientemente”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>¿Cuánto tiempo tendrá que esperar alguien para recibir la segunda dosis? En la clínica de vacunación del Hospital General Zuckerberg de San Francisco (ZSFG por sus siglas en inglés) los pacientes han sido informados por el personal del hospital que su segunda inyección puede tardar, de manera segura, hasta dos años.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>El \u003ca href=\"https://profiles.ucsf.edu/peter.chin-hong\">doctor Peter Chin-Hong\u003c/a>, especialista en enfermedades infecciosas del Centro Médico en UCSF, confirma que “es seguro no recibir la segunda dosis de la vacuna en el marco de los 28 días” y “algunos datos sugieren que esperar hasta dos años estaría bien”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Claro, es probable, que no tengamos que esperar tanto”, dijo Chin-Hong, y agregó que la segunda inyección puede servir como una dosis de refuerzo. “La primera dosis es realmente buena (85% a 90% de protección después de cuatro días) y es equivalente a dos dosis de vacuna mRNA para COVID-19”, dijo Ching- Hong. Por lo tanto, si logra recibir la primera dosis de la vacuna contra la viruela del mono y en esa cita le dijeron que debe esperar un largo tiempo para su segunda inyección, no se preocupe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si es una persona con condiciones de inmunodepresión, puede ser elegible para recibir la segunda dosis, incluso si su condado prioriza la primera inyección. El Departamento de Salud Pública de San Francisco (SFDPH por sus siglas en inglés) por ejemplo, ofrece la segunda dosis a aquellos que tienen “un sistema con condiciones de inmunodepresión severo a moderado pues no desarrollarán inmunidad después de una dosis”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFDPH agrega que este grupo incluye “personas en tratamiento activo contra el cáncer, personas que toman medicamento para inhibir el sistema inmunológico y personas con una infección de VIH avanzada o que no está siendo asistido, entre otros”.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"quien\">\u003c/a>¿Quién puede recibir la vacuna contra la viruela del mono?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Originalmente, SFDPH seguía las pautas de salud de los CDC al ofrecer la vacuna contra la viruela del mono sólo a personas que estaban seguros, o sospechaban, que fueron expuestos al virus.

Andrea McCollum, líder del equipo de epidemiología del poxvirus en la división de patología y microorganismos patógenos de graves consecuencias de los CDC dice que “\u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2022/05/19/a-cdc-expert-answers-questions-on-monkeypox/\">esto es algo que realmente no hemos descubierto en personas que se vacunaron [contra la viruela] 50 años antes, 60 años antes\u003c/a>”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Philip enfatiza que dado que una vacuna histórica contra la viruela “puede que no sea una protección completa” contra la viruela del mono, el Departamento de Salud Pública de San Francisco y los CDC recomiendan que aunque recibió una vacuna contra la viruela cuando era niño, definitivamente debe buscar una vacuna contra la viruela del mono si estuvo expuesto a este virus para “obtener la mayor protección posible”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11924194\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11924194\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2.jpg\" alt=\"Una persona sostiene una botella de medicamentos en su mano.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1281\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/08/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281-2-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">TPOXX (también conocido como Tecovirimat o ST-246) se usa para tratar a las personas que experimentan los peores síntomas de la viruela del mono. La FDA aprobó Tecovirimat para tratar la viruela en 2018. \u003ccite>(uki Iwamura/AFP via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"tratamiento\">\u003c/a>¿Qué otros tratamientos existen?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>La vacuna contra la viruela del mono puede actuar como una especie de tratamiento, pero sólo si se recibe al poco tiempo de haber estado expuesto, dice el doctor Peter Ching-Hong, especialista de enfermedades infecciosas de UCSF.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Si recibió una vacuna poco después de estar expuesto, algunas personas piensan que dentro de los cuatros días, puede afectar y evitar que se enferme, aunque haya estado expuesto a una infección,” dice Ching-Hong. “Si recibe la vacuna dentro de los 14 días posteriores a la exposición, aunque pueda tener sarpullido o enfermedad, sus síntomas se reducirán”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero la vacuna contra la viruela del mono no es el único tratamiento disponible en la actualidad. Algunos médicos administran el medicamento TPOXX (también conocido como Tecovirimat o ST-246) a pacientes que experimentan síntomas graves de viruela del mono. Tecovirimat suele ser un tratamiento de dos semanas y puede administrarse a través de una cápsula o una inyección intravenosa. El medicamento dificulta al virus que intenta infectar nuevas células, lo cual limita el crecimiento de la infección.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“La mayoría de las personas mejorarán por sí solas, pero algunas necesitarán tratamiento”, dice el doctor Ching-Hong de UCSF. Entre las personas elegibles para el tratamiento se incluyen aquellos con el sistema inmunológico vulnerable, personas embarazadas y niños menores de 8 años.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Las personas que no poseen esas características de riesgo pero contraen la viruela del mono pueden recibir tratamiento, dice Chin-Hong. Esto incluye a aquellos que desarrollan una enfermedad oral prolongada, pues les resulta muy difícil comer y beber. “Es como tener un montón de úlceras en la boca”, dice Ching-Hong. Aquellos que desarrollan la enfermedad de manera en el área rectal o cerca de los ojos también pueden recibir tratamiento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>TPOXX solo ha sido aprobado por la FDA para tratar infecciones de viruela. Los CDC, sin embargo, permiten que los médicos receten TPOXX para el tratamiento de la viruela del mono a través de un proceso conocido como “protocolo de nuevo fármaco en investigación para amplio acceso”. Un médico deberá presentar una solicitud a la FDA y el paciente debe estar dispuesto a firmar un formulario bajo su consentimiento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La doctora Philip de San Francisco dice que los funcionarios de la ciudad se están asociando con los proveedores de salud para “ampliar el acceso de las personas en toda la ciudad, ya sea que estén afiliados o no al sistema de salud”. La doctora agrega que depende de los CDC agilizar el proceso para que los médicos puedan solicitar TPOXX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Otro aspecto que los pacientes deben considerar es hablar con su médico sobre cualquier dolor que sientan y dónde. Algunos pacientes con la viruela del mono\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/health/lesions-debilitating-pain-monkeypox-experience\"> consideran el dolor de los sarpullidos como algo “insoportable”\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Existen muchas opciones que pueden aliviar o al menos reducir el dolor si se tiene la viruela del mono. Los médicos pueden recetar un tratamiento que respondería al dolor asociado con las lesiones presentes en la cara, o los brazos, la boca, o el área genital o rectal del paciente, dice el doctor Chin-Hong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“El tratamiento no solo se trata de vacunas y medicamentos. El tratamiento también se enfoca en los síntomas específicos que presenta el paciente”, dice. “Así que asegúrese de pedir ayuda a su profesional de la salud porque puede haber cosas que ayuden a sentir menos dolor”.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>\u003ca id=\"preguntas\">\u003c/a>¿Qué otras preguntas tiene sobre la viruela del mono?\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>¿Tiene más preguntas sobre la viruela del mono y no encuentra una respuesta en esta publicación o en \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/monkeypox\">nuestras guías que explican los síntomas y cómo se propaga el virus\u003c/a>?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puede usar el cuadro a continuación para enviar una pregunta.

And one of the biggest questions we’ve gotten from our audience: Do I need to worry about the risks of monkeypox and surfaces?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyone, regardless of sexual orientation or preference, can get monkeypox. Right now, the monkeypox outbreak in the United States \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/publications/m/item/monkeypox-public-health-advice-for-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">is particularly affecting communities of gay and bisexual men\u003c/a>, and men who have sex with men, and the World Health Organization notes that \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/news/item/25-05-2022-monkeypox--public-health-advice-for-gay--bisexual-and-other-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">trans people and gender-diverse people “may also be more vulnerable in the context of the current outbreak.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The main way that the virus spreads is via close, skin-to-skin contact with a person who’s infected with monkeypox — which includes sexual contact but is not limited to it. Monkeypox can also spread via respiratory droplets through very close, sustained face-to-face contact. Another way monkeypox can be transmitted that’s far less common than skin-to-skin contact is on shared surfaces and items.[aside postID='news_11920455,news_11919070,news_11920913' label='More monkeypox resources']So \u003cem>how\u003c/em> worried should you be about the risk of monkeypox spreading through surfaces or through the air?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The short answer: your risk of catching monkeypox from surfaces is highest if you’re sharing a home with a person who has monkeypox. Keep reading for what you need to know about the risks of monkeypox and surfaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, please remember that the advice that follows is based on what information we currently know and the data experts have right now about monkeypox. As with COVID, you may find that advice and best practices around monkeypox evolve and shift as more scientific information becomes available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Don’t see your question answered below, or in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/monkeypox\">our other guides covering monkeypox\u003c/a>? Send us your \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"#monkeypoxquestions\">question and tell us what to cover.\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Monkeypox can live on surfaces — but your risk of being infected this way is low\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one scientific study found that \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/specific-settings/home-disinfection.html\">the monkeypox virus can live on surfaces for up to 15 days\u003c/a>. Yes, that may sound pretty alarming, but the most recent data actually shows that monkeypox doesn’t do so well spreading through routes that don’t involve close physical or intimate contact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, the World Health Organization reported \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2022/08/05/1115859376/clearing-up-some-of-the-myths-that-have-popped-up-about-monkeypox\">only around 0.2% of people infected are thought to have caught the virus from a contaminated surface\u003c/a> in this current outbreak.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[pullquote size='medium' align='right']A note: You might hear people also referring to surface transmission as “fomites.” A fomite is an object that could be contaminated with an infectious virus or bacteria, and that helps spread it.[/pullquote]\u003c/span>Syra Madad, an infectious disease epidemiologist at Harvard’s Belfer Center, recently told Slate that\u003ca href=\"https://slate.com/technology/2022/08/monkeypox-spread-misconceptions-surfaces-sex.html\"> “just because you have viral particles on a surface doesn’t mean (they’re) going to cause infection in another person.”\u003c/a> That is, it’s not enough for that virus to be present — there also needs to be enough of that virus getting transferred first onto the surface by an infected person, and then onto the skin of someone who isn’t infected. “It’s not as easy as ‘I’m going to touch this doorknob and somebody with monkeypox just touched it so I’m going to get infected,’ ” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, an infectious disease specialist at UCSF, says that clothing, materials and surfaces are most likely to be a method of virus transmission within the home of someone \u003cem>with\u003c/em> monkeypox, specifically when someone else is having sustained contact with those items, rather than brief contact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But going to the thrift store or purchasing bedding at Bed Bath & Beyond? “That’s very, very low risk,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What about being in shared, high-touch public spaces like a gym or a pool? “It’s very, very low risk to get monkeypox in a swimming pool,” says Dr. Chin-Hong. “The risk of just touching objects in the gym or in the yoga studio is very, very small. It’s really in the context of a household where you’re touching the same things multiple times over and over again for multiple hours.”\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, infectious disease specialist at UCSF\"]‘It’s very, very low risk to get monkeypox in a swimming pool.’[/pullquote]\u003c/span>Even when you’re armed with the facts, the thought of monkeypox virus being on shared spaces in the outside world — on door handles, public transit or clothing in a store — still feels unsettling, especially if you’re being bombarded with headlines and TikToks on the subject. But remember: what gains traction online isn’t always reliable or fact-checked — and rare instances don’t equal a widespread risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Infectious disease doctor Susan McLellan at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas, offered this perspective to NPR: \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2022/08/05/1115859376/clearing-up-some-of-the-myths-that-have-popped-up-about-monkeypox\">“During this outbreak, there will probably be at least one random case where somebody gets it on a bus,”\u003c/a> she said. “But, you know, that’s going to be profoundly rare, probably less likely than being hit by that bus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If monkeypox were easily transmitted on the subway, on buses, we would be seeing it among a very different population than almost purely among the population where transmission is occurring mostly during close, intimate contact,” she noted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Monkeypox can live in the air — but only briefly\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The monkeypox virus can also spread through respiratory droplets that a person infected with monkeypox breathes out onto another person. This contact would have to be very close and sustained — a lengthy face-to-face conversation or kissing are some examples — for the virus to spread this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This means yes, monkeypox can live in the air — but not in the way you might be imagining. The idea of whether you can catch monkeypox from the air is “probably one of the most controversial areas right now,” says Dr. Chin-Hong — and he stresses that it’s important to understand what we mean by “airborne.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike COVID, monkeypox virus is not thought to linger in the air for a sustained period of time. That is, if someone with COVID breathes out respiratory droplets, those droplets can hang in the air for some time, and could expose the next person who steps into that space to the coronavirus. The monkeypox virus doesn’t operate the same way, says Dr. Chin-Hong. “COVID is a respiratory virus by its definition,” he notes. “Monkeypox is not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In general, it’s not going to be the same way we think about ‘droplets’ or ‘airborne’ and COVID,” he says. You can’t get monkeypox from casual conversations, or by passing someone with monkeypox — say, in a store.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So how else could you theoretically catch monkeypox “in the air,” if not through very close conversations or kissing? This is where sharing a home with someone who has monkeypox definitely presents the virus with more opportunities for transmission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Chin-Hong points to the example of a person with monkeypox sleeping in a bed, and their monkeypox rash shedding scabs onto the bedsheets. If another person comes in the next morning and changes those sheets, waving them around into the air, “these little scabs are filled with a virus which can survive for some time, but then go in the air, and if you inhale it, you can be afflicted with monkeypox.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some individuals have absolutely gotten monkeypox that way within households, says Dr. Chin-Hong — but “only because these small scabs are floating in the air temporarily.” For this reason, \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/information/monkeypox-faq\">the San Francisco Department of Public Health explicitly warns against shaking out bedding and towels\u003c/a> that have been used by someone with monkeypox.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919128\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11919128\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1177\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-800x490.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-1020x625.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-160x98.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-1536x942.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Digitally colorized electron microscopic (EM) image depicting a monkeypox virion (virus particle). \u003ccite>(Smith Collection/Gado/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>If you’re sharing a home with someone who has monkeypox, worrying about virus on shared surfaces is justified — but there are steps you can take.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re sharing a home with someone with an active monkeypox infection — or if you yourself have monkeypox and want to keep those you live with safe — being aware of how monkeypox can spread within a home and taking the appropriate measures is the best way to stop the virus spreading.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>If someone in your home has monkeypox …\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You should not be sharing materials like bedding, clothing and towels.

But depending on your home setup, this may not be possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Be particularly careful around laundry, especially bedding\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Dr. Chin-Hong says above, bedding and laundry can pose a particular risk because of how a person’s lesions with active monkeypox virus can rub onto those materials.

Sheets and laundry should not be shaken out, in case scabs are thrown into the air and inhaled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you have to do laundry or change the bedding of someone with monkeypox, consider wearing a mask and eye protection to avoid this kind of contamination, and wash your hands very thoroughly after.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you have monkeypox and can’t avoid being in the same room as other people, the WHO advises you to keep any rashes or lesions covered with clothing or a bandage.

And one of the biggest questions we’ve gotten from our audience: Do I need to worry about the risks of monkeypox and surfaces?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anyone, regardless of sexual orientation or preference, can get monkeypox. Right now, the monkeypox outbreak in the United States \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/publications/m/item/monkeypox-public-health-advice-for-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">is particularly affecting communities of gay and bisexual men\u003c/a>, and men who have sex with men, and the World Health Organization notes that \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/news/item/25-05-2022-monkeypox--public-health-advice-for-gay--bisexual-and-other-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">trans people and gender-diverse people “may also be more vulnerable in the context of the current outbreak.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The main way that the virus spreads is via close, skin-to-skin contact with a person who’s infected with monkeypox — which includes sexual contact but is not limited to it. Monkeypox can also spread via respiratory droplets through very close, sustained face-to-face contact. Another way monkeypox can be transmitted that’s far less common than skin-to-skin contact is on shared surfaces and items.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Keep reading for what you need to know about the risks of monkeypox and surfaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, please remember that the advice that follows is based on what information we currently know and the data experts have right now about monkeypox.

It’s really in the context of a household where you’re touching the same things multiple times over and over again for multiple hours.”\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But remember: what gains traction online isn’t always reliable or fact-checked — and rare instances don’t equal a widespread risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Infectious disease doctor Susan McLellan at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, Texas, offered this perspective to NPR: \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2022/08/05/1115859376/clearing-up-some-of-the-myths-that-have-popped-up-about-monkeypox\">“During this outbreak, there will probably be at least one random case where somebody gets it on a bus,”\u003c/a> she said. “But, you know, that’s going to be profoundly rare, probably less likely than being hit by that bus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If monkeypox were easily transmitted on the subway, on buses, we would be seeing it among a very different population than almost purely among the population where transmission is occurring mostly during close, intimate contact,” she noted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

This contact would have to be very close and sustained — a lengthy face-to-face conversation or kissing are some examples — for the virus to spread this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This means yes, monkeypox can live in the air — but not in the way you might be imagining. The idea of whether you can catch monkeypox from the air is “probably one of the most controversial areas right now,” says Dr. Chin-Hong — and he stresses that it’s important to understand what we mean by “airborne.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike COVID, monkeypox virus is not thought to linger in the air for a sustained period of time. That is, if someone with COVID breathes out respiratory droplets, those droplets can hang in the air for some time, and could expose the next person who steps into that space to the coronavirus. The monkeypox virus doesn’t operate the same way, says Dr. Chin-Hong. “COVID is a respiratory virus by its definition,” he notes. “Monkeypox is not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In general, it’s not going to be the same way we think about ‘droplets’ or ‘airborne’ and COVID,” he says. You can’t get monkeypox from casual conversations, or by passing someone with monkeypox — say, in a store.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So how else could you theoretically catch monkeypox “in the air,” if not through very close conversations or kissing? This is where sharing a home with someone who has monkeypox definitely presents the virus with more opportunities for transmission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Chin-Hong points to the example of a person with monkeypox sleeping in a bed, and their monkeypox rash shedding scabs onto the bedsheets. If another person comes in the next morning and changes those sheets, waving them around into the air, “these little scabs are filled with a virus which can survive for some time, but then go in the air, and if you inhale it, you can be afflicted with monkeypox.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some individuals have absolutely gotten monkeypox that way within households, says Dr. Chin-Hong — but “only because these small scabs are floating in the air temporarily.” For this reason, \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/information/monkeypox-faq\">the San Francisco Department of Public Health explicitly warns against shaking out bedding and towels\u003c/a> that have been used by someone with monkeypox.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919128\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11919128\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1177\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-800x490.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-1020x625.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-160x98.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57170_GettyImages-1401390462-qut-1536x942.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Digitally colorized electron microscopic (EM) image depicting a monkeypox virion (virus particle). \u003ccite>(Smith Collection/Gado/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>If you’re sharing a home with someone who has monkeypox, worrying about virus on shared surfaces is justified — but there are steps you can take.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re sharing a home with someone with an active monkeypox infection — or if you yourself have monkeypox and want to keep those you live with safe — being aware of how monkeypox can spread within a home and taking the appropriate measures is the best way to stop the virus spreading.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>If someone in your home has monkeypox …\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>You should not be sharing materials like bedding, clothing and towels.

Sheets and laundry should not be shaken out, in case scabs are thrown into the air and inhaled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you have to do laundry or change the bedding of someone with monkeypox, consider wearing a mask and eye protection to avoid this kind of contamination, and wash your hands very thoroughly after.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you have monkeypox and can’t avoid being in the same room as other people, the WHO advises you to keep any rashes or lesions covered with clothing or a bandage.

It’s an understandable fear — not least because we’ve been here before, with COVID.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years ago, the idea of surface transmission for the coronavirus was very much in the popular consciousness, as early public health messaging around COVID-19 laid heavy emphasis on strong hand-washing and sanitation practices, and videos like \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKx-F4AKteE\">“How to Safely Grocery Shop During Coronavirus”\u003c/a> racked up huge views. And while good hygiene practices remain important around the coronavirus, more recent and complete data has taught us that respiratory transmission between people poses a far greater risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nonetheless, it’s hard not to hear fears about monkeypox and fomites without being transported back to those first unsettling months of the COVID pandemic — a pandemic we’re still very much in, even as we work to keep our communities safe from the new public health threat in monkeypox.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"monkeypoxquestions\">\u003c/a>What other questions do you have about monkeypox?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you have more questions about monkeypox, we want to hear them.

Those doses represent “a drop in the bucket” of what’s needed, state epidemiologist Dr. Erica Pan told county health officers in a meeting last week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During a Senate oversight hearing held Tuesday, Sen. Scott Wiener, a San Francisco Democrat, said “severe public health failures” at the federal level led to the current outbreak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We need to turn this around,” Wiener said. “We need to continue to push hard to make sure that our state, federal, state and local public health authorities are directing the resources where they’re needed most and rapidly expanding support for vaccination, testing and treatment to slow and hopefully stop this spread.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Lessons learned\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Despite continued resource challenges, public health systems are better prepared to respond to monkeypox than they were to COVID-19. In the early days of the pandemic, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2022/06/patient-data-california/\">hospitals didn’t even have a way to quickly report how many COVID-19 patients were hospitalized or in intensive care\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“(Monkeypox) is a serious concern, but public health is far more prepared now than we have ever been,” said Sarah Bosse, Madera County public health director.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Madera County has not reported any monkeypox cases, but neighboring Fresno County has seven cases. Bosse said her department is already in talks with the state on how to redirect COVID-19 contact tracers to monkeypox response and how to scale up vaccination clinics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The state has been very proactive in identifying counties that need additional support,” Bosse said. [pullquote size='medium' align='left' citation=\"Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco)\"]‘What’s frustrating is that unlike COVID, which was a brand new virus that we had never seen before…with monkeypox we do know about it. It’s been around almost 70 years. We actually have a vaccine and an effective treatment. You would think that would be a recipe for very quickly controlling an outbreak.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In comparison, in 2020, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/03/timeline-california-pandemic-year-key-points/\">11 counties declared local emergencies for COVID-19 before Gov. Gavin Newsom\u003c/a> declared a statewide emergency, freeing up staff and fiscal resources. This time, only San Francisco beat the state to the punch, a signal that state officials are closely in tune with local needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To someone like me who has been doing this for 30 years, this actually moved very fast,” said Dr. Timothy Brewer, an infectious disease specialist at UC Los Angeles, who recalled it was three years between when the first case of AIDS was described in Los Angeles and identification of the HIV virus. It took an additional three years before the first treatment was developed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comparing monkeypox to the HIV/AIDS epidemic and COVID-19 pandemic — both of which activists and state leaders have done — isn’t exactly apples-to-apples. What researchers knew about each disease at the onset of their respective outbreaks and available treatments varied widely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s frustrating is that unlike COVID, which was a brand new virus that we had never seen before…with monkeypox we do know about it. It’s been around almost 70 years,” Wiener said. “We actually have a vaccine and an effective treatment. You would think that would be a recipe for very quickly controlling an outbreak.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the influx of attention and money on the state’s chronically underfunded public health resources during the past two years has helped agencies ramp up for monkeypox much more quickly than they did with COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, six months after the first confirmed COVID-19 case in California, the state was still \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/03/timeline-california-pandemic-year-key-points/\">rationing test kits\u003c/a> and struggling to process a backlog of results. In comparison, one month after the first monkeypox case in the U.S., the CDC onboarded five commercial laboratories, making monkeypox testing widely available at hospitals and doctors’ offices. In the same time period, the California Department of Public Health doubled its weekly testing capacity from 1,000 to 2,000 tests with an average turnaround time of three days, far shorter than the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2020/04/california-coronavirus-test-backlog-delays-newsom-announces-ramp-up/\">12 days reported for early COVID-19 tests\u003c/a>.

County health officials say they’re now using those same systems for monkeypox. By Aug. 15, the state plans to launch a monkeypox vaccine appointment portal through the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/04/myturn-vaccine-appointments-problems/\">MyTurn website developed for COVID-19\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have weekly calls with (the state health department) and everyone is saying we need funding resources for this,” said Tulare County Public Health Director Karen Elliott. “I think that’s one of the reasons (the state health department) wanted the state of emergency. It cuts a lot of red tape.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of that red tape stems from reallocating money earmarked for COVID-19 to monkeypox, which requires both federal and state approval. Public health funding is notoriously categorical, representing a history of crisis allocation rather than continuous investment in safety-net systems and disease prevention. This severely limits the flexibility needed to respond to an outbreak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have a specific budget for tobacco prevention, a specific budget for obesity prevention,” Madera’s public health director Bosse said. “We have 78 (funding streams) for one department that all have to be tracked separately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state allocated \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/07/cost-covid-california/\">$12.3 billion to pandemic response\u003c/a> in the past two years. Some counties have money left over or have staff hired to run COVID-19 clinics and conduct contact tracing, but haven’t been able to use them for monkeypox, which Elliott says they’ll need as cases increase in Tulare County. [pullquote size='medium' align='left' citation=\"Karen Elliott, public health director with Tulare County\"]‘I think that’s one of the reasons (the state health department) wanted the state of emergency. It cuts a lot of red tape.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Legislature also approved $300 million in ongoing public health funding for local health departments in June, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2022/08/california-monkeypox/\">the first significant state investment since 2008\u003c/a>. Typically that money would take several months to make its way to county health agencies, but the state of emergency has helped them get the money now, county officials said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, county officials emphasize that spending flexibility is needed in public health. Riverside County Public Health Director Kimberly Saruwatari said the employees responding to monkeypox are working “outside of their grant requirements” and local departments won’t be able to sustain that spending. San Diego County Public Health Director Elizabeth Hernandez testified during Tuesday’s hearing that her department is spending $90,000 per week on monkeypox response and has incurred more than $400,000 in expenses.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Shortfalls remain\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Even with a more coordinated statewide response, bureaucratic delays and shortages at the federal level threaten to upend local efforts to control the spread. The CDC recommends doctors only test a small subset of the population that suspects they are a close contact of someone with monkeypox or are symptomatic. Also, the antiviral treatment for severe cases is considered experimental and requires hours of paperwork for each patient along with an ethics review, rendering most clinics unable to give it to patients. Meanwhile, vaccines remain far too scarce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UCSF’s Dr. Chin-Hong said limitations on who can get tested mean cases are diagnosed far too late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Aug. 2, the state health department had received 6,682 monkeypox test results, with the positivity rate around 19%. Generally, a positivity rate higher than 5% means not enough testing is being conducted.[aside label=\"Related Coverage\" tag=\"monkeypox\"] “In an outbreak setting you want to test as many people as possible. You know you’re successful if you have a lot of negative tests,” Chin-Hong said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The earlier a case is diagnosed, the easier it is to conduct contact tracing, which becomes critical in the face of vaccine shortages. That, however, continues to be an obstacle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2022/08/08/san-francisco-retreated-on-contact-tracing-for-monkeypox-weeks-ago/?utm_source=CalMatters+Newsletters&utm_campaign=07db42b441-WHATMATTERS&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_faa7be558d-07db42b441-151722021&mc_cid=07db42b441&mc_eid=3d4d91014b\">The Mercury News reported that San Francisco’s health department has largely abandoned contact tracing\u003c/a> as a primary containment strategy — citing difficulties in getting patients to divulge sexual partners — and is instead telling people to “self-refer partners.” Monkeypox is not a sexually transmitted disease but has been spreading through sexual networks due to the close skin-to-skin contact needed for transmission. In comparison, contact tracing for COVID-19 quickly became infeasible in part because the ease of airborne transmission made it impossible for many people to pinpoint where they became infected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Epidemiologists say monkeypox could feasibly be contained given its long incubation period of two to three weeks, but it requires public health departments to have ample employees to do the work of getting a detailed history from patients and calling every known contact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have enough money for robust contact tracing given the number of cases,” Chin-Hong said. “That leaves people to do their own contact tracing. They need to get tested.” [pullquote size='medium' align='left' citation=\"Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, infectious disease specialist at UC San Francisco\"]‘We don’t have enough money for robust contact tracing given the number of case. That leaves people to do their own contact tracing. They need to get tested.’[/pullquote] Elliot, Tulare County’s public health director, said most counties will have trouble scaling up contact tracing without state support. Her staff has three communicable disease investigators who work to find close contacts of each case and two public health nurses that are in daily contact with positive patients to monitor their symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have two cases but we’d be ignorant to think we won’t have more,” she said. “Eventually, we won’t have the bandwidth for this anymore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles County Health Officer Dr. Muntu Davis said his department has “insufficient resources for contact tracing” and has requested help from the state. Confirmed monkeypox cases in Los Angeles County doubled in the past 10 days to 647 infections, Davis told legislators at Tuesday’s hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With lackluster testing and contact tracing resources, Chin-Hong said the primary strategy for monkeypox containment becomes “vaccinate like crazy” for the most at-risk population: gay, bisexual and transgender men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet again, that strategy comes with severe limitations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to be clear, the state of emergency and emergency budget request? Neither will solve our most basic need, which is for more vaccine. We can’t distribute a vaccine that we don’t have,” said Kat DeBurgh, executive director of the Health Officers Association of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials continue to stress that risk remains low for the general public, and some say the political discourse has caused unwarranted panic.[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Kat DeBurgh, executive director of the Health Officers Association of California\"]‘I want to be clear, the state of emergency and emergency budget request? Neither will solve our most basic need, which is for more vaccine. We can’t distribute a vaccine that we don’t have.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monkeypox won’t infect as many people as COVID-19 due to its mode of transmission and has not caused any deaths in the United States, although it can cause painful lesions on the skin. Twenty-seven patients, representing 3% of all cases, are hospitalized in California primarily for pain management, according to State Health Officer Dr. Tomás Aragón.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In comparison, \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2020/04/california-coronavirus-covid-patient-hospitalization-data-icu/\">more than 4,300 COVID-19 patients\u003c/a> are currently hospitalized and 93,056 Californians have died since the beginning of the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a self-limiting, non-fatal disease,” Solano County Public Health Director Dr. Bela Matyas said. “Here we are redeploying from COVID to monkeypox.

Gavin Newsom\u003c/a> declared a statewide emergency, freeing up staff and fiscal resources. This time, only San Francisco beat the state to the punch, a signal that state officials are closely in tune with local needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To someone like me who has been doing this for 30 years, this actually moved very fast,” said Dr. Timothy Brewer, an infectious disease specialist at UC Los Angeles, who recalled it was three years between when the first case of AIDS was described in Los Angeles and identification of the HIV virus. It took an additional three years before the first treatment was developed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comparing monkeypox to the HIV/AIDS epidemic and COVID-19 pandemic — both of which activists and state leaders have done — isn’t exactly apples-to-apples. What researchers knew about each disease at the onset of their respective outbreaks and available treatments varied widely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What’s frustrating is that unlike COVID, which was a brand new virus that we had never seen before…with monkeypox we do know about it. It’s been around almost 70 years,” Wiener said. “We actually have a vaccine and an effective treatment. You would think that would be a recipe for very quickly controlling an outbreak.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the influx of attention and money on the state’s chronically underfunded public health resources during the past two years has helped agencies ramp up for monkeypox much more quickly than they did with COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, six months after the first confirmed COVID-19 case in California, the state was still \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/03/timeline-california-pandemic-year-key-points/\">rationing test kits\u003c/a> and struggling to process a backlog of results. In comparison, one month after the first monkeypox case in the U.S., the CDC onboarded five commercial laboratories, making monkeypox testing widely available at hospitals and doctors’ offices. In the same time period, the California Department of Public Health doubled its weekly testing capacity from 1,000 to 2,000 tests with an average turnaround time of three days, far shorter than the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2020/04/california-coronavirus-test-backlog-delays-newsom-announces-ramp-up/\">12 days reported for early COVID-19 tests\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

County health officials say they’re now using those same systems for monkeypox. By Aug. 15, the state plans to launch a monkeypox vaccine appointment portal through the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/04/myturn-vaccine-appointments-problems/\">MyTurn website developed for COVID-19\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have weekly calls with (the state health department) and everyone is saying we need funding resources for this,” said Tulare County Public Health Director Karen Elliott. “I think that’s one of the reasons (the state health department) wanted the state of emergency. It cuts a lot of red tape.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of that red tape stems from reallocating money earmarked for COVID-19 to monkeypox, which requires both federal and state approval. Public health funding is notoriously categorical, representing a history of crisis allocation rather than continuous investment in safety-net systems and disease prevention. This severely limits the flexibility needed to respond to an outbreak.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have a specific budget for tobacco prevention, a specific budget for obesity prevention,” Madera’s public health director Bosse said. “We have 78 (funding streams) for one department that all have to be tracked separately.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state allocated \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/coronavirus/2021/07/cost-covid-california/\">$12.3 billion to pandemic response\u003c/a> in the past two years. Some counties have money left over or have staff hired to run COVID-19 clinics and conduct contact tracing, but haven’t been able to use them for monkeypox, which Elliott says they’ll need as cases increase in Tulare County. \u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Typically that money would take several months to make its way to county health agencies, but the state of emergency has helped them get the money now, county officials said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, county officials emphasize that spending flexibility is needed in public health. Riverside County Public Health Director Kimberly Saruwatari said the employees responding to monkeypox are working “outside of their grant requirements” and local departments won’t be able to sustain that spending. San Diego County Public Health Director Elizabeth Hernandez testified during Tuesday’s hearing that her department is spending $90,000 per week on monkeypox response and has incurred more than $400,000 in expenses.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Shortfalls remain\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Even with a more coordinated statewide response, bureaucratic delays and shortages at the federal level threaten to upend local efforts to control the spread. The CDC recommends doctors only test a small subset of the population that suspects they are a close contact of someone with monkeypox or are symptomatic. Also, the antiviral treatment for severe cases is considered experimental and requires hours of paperwork for each patient along with an ethics review, rendering most clinics unable to give it to patients. Meanwhile, vaccines remain far too scarce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UCSF’s Dr. Chin-Hong said limitations on who can get tested mean cases are diagnosed far too late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of Aug. 2, the state health department had received 6,682 monkeypox test results, with the positivity rate around 19%.

In comparison, contact tracing for COVID-19 quickly became infeasible in part because the ease of airborne transmission made it impossible for many people to pinpoint where they became infected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Epidemiologists say monkeypox could feasibly be contained given its long incubation period of two to three weeks, but it requires public health departments to have ample employees to do the work of getting a detailed history from patients and calling every known contact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have enough money for robust contact tracing given the number of cases,” Chin-Hong said. “That leaves people to do their own contact tracing.

"content": "\u003cp>Monkeypox has existed for decades, but we’re now seeing multiple outbreaks across the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 4,600 cases have been detected nationwide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monkeypox is related to the smallpox virus, but it’s generally less severe and “much less contagious” than smallpox, according to the California Department of Public Health. While the symptoms — including a rash that causes lesions — can be very painful, the CDC says monkeypox is “rarely fatal,” and that “over 99% of people who get this form of the disease are likely to survive.” Being sick with monkeypox typically lasts 2-4 weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of July 25, there were \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/22/health/monkeypox-children-vaccine/index.html\">only two known cases of monkeypox in kids in the United States\u003c/a>. One of those children diagnosed with monkeypox is a California toddler. And despite these very small numbers, the risk of monkeypox to kids might naturally be on the minds of some parents and caregivers across the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED spoke to Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, professor of pediatrics and infectious diseases at Stanford University, about what you need to know about monkeypox in children at the moment. Her overarching message: “We shouldn’t panic” about monkeypox and kids right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think it’s really helpful for families to just know what the facts are at this point,” says Maldonado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Anyone can get monkeypox, but right now, the risk to kids looks small\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“There’s no major risk for children” right now, says Maldonado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maldonado stresses there’s still just so much we don’t know, and can’t accurately predict yet. But because adults have been impacted by the monkeypox outbreak, “it’s not unreasonable to expect that there may be some spread into household contacts, especially children,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monkeypox spreads from close physical contact with an infected person, including sustained face-to-face exposure via respiratory droplets.

That’s very, very common.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maldonado says that when she first saw pictures of monkeypox rashes from this current outbreak, “some of the lesions — the less serious ones — really look like virus lesions that little kids can get. And I was worried that parents would just get panicked if they thought their kid had monkeypox, but probably it’s just a local virus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The main message right now is that it’s rare in kids,” says Maldonado. “It still is much rarer than just being around a bunch of other kids and catching a summer virus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite what the name might suggest, monkeypox is not related to chickenpox at all — so your child’s chickenpox vaccination will not offer any protection against monkeypox.

And certainly, people who’ve had the disease recently \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/health/lesions-debilitating-pain-monkeypox-experience\">have spoken about the often intense pain they’ve experienced during their infections\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But fortunately, we haven’t seen terribly severe disease, and I think that’s really important to remember,” says Maldonado.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Kids could have options for monkeypox vaccines and treatment if needed\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The monkeypox vaccine being offered in the United States right now is called Jynneos — a two-dose vaccine that’s also used to prevent smallpox.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, Jynneos is only generally available for people age 18 and older, although “the CDC does have a special approval for giving the vaccine to children under 18,” says Maldonado. “But that needs to be given with some paperwork involved, because it’s really not officially released by the FDA for general use.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CDC recommends that the vaccine be given to a person within four days of the date they were exposed to monkeypox, for the best chance of preventing onset of the disease. If a person gets the vaccine between four and 14 days of being exposed, the vaccine may reduce the symptoms of monkeypox, but may not prevent the disease altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supplies of the monkeypox vaccine in the Bay Area are distributed directly from the California Department of Public Health, who get their supply from the federal government.

The FDA already has approved Tecovirimat to treat smallpox, and has recently expanded its use for monkeypox among adults and children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as with giving the Jynneos vaccine to kids, treating children – and adults, in fact — with TPOXX also gets complicated because of regulation.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, over 4,600 cases have been detected nationwide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monkeypox is related to the smallpox virus, but it’s generally less severe and “much less contagious” than smallpox, according to the California Department of Public Health. While the symptoms — including a rash that causes lesions — can be very painful, the CDC says monkeypox is “rarely fatal,” and that “over 99% of people who get this form of the disease are likely to survive.” Being sick with monkeypox typically lasts 2-4 weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of July 25, there were \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2022/07/22/health/monkeypox-children-vaccine/index.html\">only two known cases of monkeypox in kids in the United States\u003c/a>.

That’s a lot harder to control.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, “I suspect we’ll just have to wait and see,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>As with COVID, sick kids should be kept away from group settings\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Schools might also think about keeping kids who have symptoms or a potential exposure to monkeypox away from the school setting temporarily, and away from other students, says Maldonado.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for other settings in which kids will have physical contact, such as athletic leagues, Maldonado says the people running those organizations should keep doing what they’ve hopefully been doing through COVID, and continue to ask parents and caregivers not to bring their kids into these settings if they suspect they’re sick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We should always say that ‘no matter where you are and what you think you’re sick with, you shouldn’t really be in large gatherings if you have active respiratory or other illnesses,’” says Maldonado. “And so that would be the same.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

As the name might suggest, the virus is related to the smallpox virus but it’s generally less severe and “much less contagious” than smallpox, according to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although you might assume MPX is also related to chickenpox, it’s not.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How did MPX get its name?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The disease was called “monkeypox” because \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/about.html\">it was first found in 1958 in monkeys\u003c/a>. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say that the first human case of MPX was recorded in 1970.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several public health bodies, including the California Department of Public Health and the San Francisco Department of Public Health, have now chosen to refer to the virus as “MPX” to address concerns that \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/science/story/2022-08-26/many-say-the-name-is-racist-so-what-do-you-call-monkeypox\">the original name furthers both racist and homophobic stigma\u003c/a> around the disease and those who contract it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In speech, MPX is usually pronounced “em-pox,” or the initials “em-pee-ecks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You may often see “monkeypox” on first usage, and “MPX” thereafter throughout an article or a resource from a public agency. Some official resources may also use “MPOX”. Rest assured these names are referring to the same disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How dangerous is MPX?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>While it’s less severe than smallpox, MPX can still be a serious disease. The good news is that according to the CDC, MPX is “rarely fatal” — and that “\u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/faq.html\">over 99% of people who get this form of the disease are likely to survive\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, “people with weakened immune systems, children under 8 years of age, people with a history of eczema, and people who are pregnant or breastfeeding may be more likely to get seriously ill or die.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Being sick with MPX typically lasts 2-4 weeks.

It can, however, range from five to 21 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CDC says that \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/clinicians/clinical-recognition.html\">you aren’t contagious during this incubation period.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After that initial incubation period, a person who’s infected with MPX will start to develop symptoms and become contagious to others. The CDC says that symptoms of MPX can include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A rash (also known as lesions) that can look like pimples or blisters that appears on the face, inside the mouth, and on other parts of the body, like the hands, feet, chest, genitals or anus. The rash goes through different stages before healing completely.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Fever\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Headache\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Muscle aches and backache\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Swollen lymph nodes\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Chills\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Exhaustion\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Much like with COVID, symptoms can present quite differently in different people. According to the CDC, some people get a rash first, and other symptoms follow. Other folks will only experience the rash itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The symptoms of MPX that aren’t the rash — like chills, fatigue and headache — are similar to symptoms of COVID. This means it’s entirely possible you could initially mistake a MPX infection for a COVID infection (or you could assume it’s another illness entirely, if you then test for COVID and get a negative result). This is why watching out for a rash is really important.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Department of Public Health says that usually, that \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/information/monkeypox\">MPX rash will start in the form of red, flat spots\u003c/a>, which then become bumps. The bumps then become filled with fluid, which will then break and crust over into a scab.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to the itch they can cause, MPX lesions can be very painful, especially in genital areas or the anus. The CDC notes that people also can have permanent scarring after the rash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/monkeypox\">The symptoms of MPX can last two to four weeks.\u003c/a> This means that, with an incubation period that could be as short as five days or as long as 21 days, a person could be dealing with an MPX infection for anywhere from under three weeks to almost two months.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Who can get MPX?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Anyone can get MPX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As more details emerge of the outbreak in the U.S., it appears that \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/publications/m/item/monkeypox-public-health-advice-for-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">MPX infections are particularly affecting communities of gay and bisexual men\u003c/a>, and men who have sex with men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The World Health Organization notes that \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/news/item/25-05-2022-monkeypox--public-health-advice-for-gay--bisexual-and-other-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">trans people and gender-diverse people “may also be more vulnerable\u003c/a> in the context of the current outbreak.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Health Officer Susan Philip says that LGBTQ+ folks currently being at higher risk for MPX has “nothing to do with sexual orientation or gender identity,” but is more about “being part of these networks and having close contact within those networks.” People in these networks “will likely then have expanded eligibility, expanded access to [an MPX] vaccine,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How does MPX spread?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>According to the CDC, the MPX virus can spread from person to person in the following ways:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>From contact with an infected person:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThis could be direct contact with the infectious rash, scabs or body fluids, or during intimate physical contact, such as kissing, cuddling or sex. It could also spread via respiratory droplets during prolonged, face-to-face contact (even talking with someone at very close range).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CDC says that right now, it’s “not known” if MPX can spread through semen or vaginal fluids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>From contact with an item that’s previously touched the rash or fluids of an infected person:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThis could include touching or sharing clothes, bedsheets or towels. SFDPH notes that according to the CDC, studies show the MPX virus can live on surfaces for as long as 15 days and still infect someone — but that you’d need to touch that surface “for a pretty long time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can get MPX from an infected animal, either through a scratch or bite, or by preparing or eating meat or products from an infected animal.

But it can also spread through nonsexual behavior, like using a towel or bedsheets previously used by an infected person that have not been washed yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When someone tests positive for MPX, health officials will work with them to contact their close contacts, similar to the contact tracing method used for sexually transmitted infection, says Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, an infectious disease specialist at UCSF.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the highest priority for vaccines right now,” he says, “the contacts of people who are known cases.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chin-Hong also encourages sexual partners to talk about MPX before having sex.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Whenever you have a new partner, you should have a very frank and open conversation that’s health-positive, and open-ended,” he explains. This can include things like possible HIV exposures and HIV test results, and asking about any potential MPX symptoms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“‘Have you noticed any rash or anything like that recently or have you been in contact with anyone [with symptoms]?’,” he suggests as possible questions. “They are the people who are weighing the risks and benefits in different ways. So I think that … open and honest conversation is really important, not just to MPX, but just as a good practice in general.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"monkeypoxtreament\">\u003c/a>What should I do if I suspect I have MPX?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If you’re experiencing the \u003ca href=\"#monkeypoxsymptoms\">symptoms of MPX\u003c/a>, or you’ve been informed you could have been exposed to MPX, it’s important you take action as soon as possible.

This timeliness is another reason it’s important to stay vigilant for possible exposure to MPX and watch for symptoms — and to act quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11920455/where-can-i-find-a-monkeypox-vaccine-near-me\">Read our full guide to the MPX vaccine in the Bay Area.\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"monkeypoxtreatment\">\u003c/a>What MPX treatments are available?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Currently, the drug Tecovirimat (also known as TPOXX or ST-246) is being used to treat those experiencing severe MPX. The Food and Drug Administration already has approved Tecovirimat to treat smallpox, and has recently expanded its use for MPX among adults and children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tecovirimat is usually a two-week treatment and can be administered either through a capsule or an intravenous (IV) injection. The drug works by making it harder for the virus to infect new cells, therefore limiting the infection growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most people will get better on their own but some people will require treatment,” says Chin-Hong of UCSF. Those considered for treatment include immunocompromised people, pregnant people and children under 8.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People who don’t have those particular risk factors but still develop severe MPX also can receive treatment, Chin-Hong says. This includes those who develop extensive oral disease, as that makes it very difficult to eat and drink. “It’s like having a bunch of ulcers in your mouth,” he says. Those who develop the disease extensively in the rectal area or near the eyes also can receive treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The blisters and sores that develop can be quite painful, he adds: “Treatment is not only about vaccines and drug treatments but also about what specific symptoms the patient’s having.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He recommends talking to your physician about what pain you’re feeling and where. If the disease is in the rectal area, it can be painful to defecate. But there are many options available that can alleviate, or at least reduce, the pain you may be feeling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The MPX vaccine also can act as a sort of treatment, he says, but only when someone receives it shortly after being exposed. “In MPX, the incubation period is longer,” he explains. “So that means if you got a vaccine shortly after exposure — some people think within four days — it can impact and stop you from getting disease, even though you might have been exposed to an infection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you get the vaccine within 14 days of exposure, even though you might get the rash or disease, it will reduce your symptoms.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919138\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11919138\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1378\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-800x574.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-1020x732.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-160x115.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-1536x1102.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A vial of the Jynneos MPX vaccine. \u003ccite>(Bill O'Leary/The Washington Post via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Do we know how MPX interacts with COVID?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The California Department of Public Health stresses that MPX is “a completely different disease” from COVID, and that this outbreak is unrelated to COVID.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MPX is much less contagious than COVID and the way it spreads also is very different.

As the name might suggest, the virus is related to the smallpox virus but it’s generally less severe and “much less contagious” than smallpox, according to the California Department of Public Health (CDPH).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although you might assume MPX is also related to chickenpox, it’s not.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How did MPX get its name?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The disease was called “monkeypox” because \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/about.html\">it was first found in 1958 in monkeys\u003c/a>. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say that the first human case of MPX was recorded in 1970.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several public health bodies, including the California Department of Public Health and the San Francisco Department of Public Health, have now chosen to refer to the virus as “MPX” to address concerns that \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/science/story/2022-08-26/many-say-the-name-is-racist-so-what-do-you-call-monkeypox\">the original name furthers both racist and homophobic stigma\u003c/a> around the disease and those who contract it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In speech, MPX is usually pronounced “em-pox,” or the initials “em-pee-ecks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You may often see “monkeypox” on first usage, and “MPX” thereafter throughout an article or a resource from a public agency. Some official resources may also use “MPOX”. Rest assured these names are referring to the same disease.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>How dangerous is MPX?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>While it’s less severe than smallpox, MPX can still be a serious disease. The good news is that according to the CDC, MPX is “rarely fatal” — and that “\u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/faq.html\">over 99% of people who get this form of the disease are likely to survive\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, “people with weakened immune systems, children under 8 years of age, people with a history of eczema, and people who are pregnant or breastfeeding may be more likely to get seriously ill or die.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Being sick with MPX typically lasts 2-4 weeks. The symptoms of MPX are similar to smallpox symptoms, but luckily are milder.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"monkeypoxcases\">\u003c/a>How many MPX cases are in California and the Bay Area right now?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>See \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/monkeypox.aspx\">the number of probable and confirmed MPX cases reported in California right now\u003c/a>, via the California Department of Public Health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>See \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/information/monkeypox-cases\">the current number of probable and confirmed cases of MPX in San Francisco\u003c/a>, via the San Francisco Public Health Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>See \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/response/2022/us-map.html\">the number of nationwide MPX cases state-by-state\u003c/a>, according to the CDC’s map.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919133\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11919133\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57172_GettyImages-1400054668-qut.jpg\" alt=\"A woman wearing a white lab coat and blue surgical gloves is photographed from behind over her left shoulder as she prepared a medical sample on a white table.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57172_GettyImages-1400054668-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57172_GettyImages-1400054668-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57172_GettyImages-1400054668-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57172_GettyImages-1400054668-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57172_GettyImages-1400054668-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A nurse prepares a PCR test for MPX testing. \u003ccite>(Carlos Lujan/Europa Press via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"monkeypoxsymptoms\">\u003c/a>What are the symptoms of MPX?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>According to the World Health Organization, \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/monkeypox\">the incubation period of MPX\u003c/a>— that is, the amount of time between getting infected with MPX and actually developing the symptoms — is usually from six to 13 days. It can, however, range from five to 21 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CDC says that \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/clinicians/clinical-recognition.html\">you aren’t contagious during this incubation period.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After that initial incubation period, a person who’s infected with MPX will start to develop symptoms and become contagious to others. The CDC says that symptoms of MPX can include:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A rash (also known as lesions) that can look like pimples or blisters that appears on the face, inside the mouth, and on other parts of the body, like the hands, feet, chest, genitals or anus. The rash goes through different stages before healing completely.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Fever\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Headache\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Muscle aches and backache\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Swollen lymph nodes\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Chills\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Exhaustion\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Much like with COVID, symptoms can present quite differently in different people. According to the CDC, some people get a rash first, and other symptoms follow. Other folks will only experience the rash itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The symptoms of MPX that aren’t the rash — like chills, fatigue and headache — are similar to symptoms of COVID. This means it’s entirely possible you could initially mistake a MPX infection for a COVID infection (or you could assume it’s another illness entirely, if you then test for COVID and get a negative result). This is why watching out for a rash is really important.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Department of Public Health says that usually, that \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/information/monkeypox\">MPX rash will start in the form of red, flat spots\u003c/a>, which then become bumps. The bumps then become filled with fluid, which will then break and crust over into a scab.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to the itch they can cause, MPX lesions can be very painful, especially in genital areas or the anus. The CDC notes that people also can have permanent scarring after the rash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/monkeypox\">The symptoms of MPX can last two to four weeks.\u003c/a> This means that, with an incubation period that could be as short as five days or as long as 21 days, a person could be dealing with an MPX infection for anywhere from under three weeks to almost two months.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Who can get MPX?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Anyone can get MPX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As more details emerge of the outbreak in the U.S., it appears that \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/publications/m/item/monkeypox-public-health-advice-for-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">MPX infections are particularly affecting communities of gay and bisexual men\u003c/a>, and men who have sex with men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The World Health Organization notes that \u003ca href=\"https://www.who.int/news/item/25-05-2022-monkeypox--public-health-advice-for-gay--bisexual-and-other-men-who-have-sex-with-men\">trans people and gender-diverse people “may also be more vulnerable\u003c/a> in the context of the current outbreak.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Health Officer Susan Philip says that LGBTQ+ folks currently being at higher risk for MPX has “nothing to do with sexual orientation or gender identity,” but is more about “being part of these networks and having close contact within those networks.” People in these networks “will likely then have expanded eligibility, expanded access to [an MPX] vaccine,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

This timeliness is another reason it’s important to stay vigilant for possible exposure to MPX and watch for symptoms — and to act quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11920455/where-can-i-find-a-monkeypox-vaccine-near-me\">Read our full guide to the MPX vaccine in the Bay Area.\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"monkeypoxtreatment\">\u003c/a>What MPX treatments are available?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Currently, the drug Tecovirimat (also known as TPOXX or ST-246) is being used to treat those experiencing severe MPX. The Food and Drug Administration already has approved Tecovirimat to treat smallpox, and has recently expanded its use for MPX among adults and children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tecovirimat is usually a two-week treatment and can be administered either through a capsule or an intravenous (IV) injection. The drug works by making it harder for the virus to infect new cells, therefore limiting the infection growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most people will get better on their own but some people will require treatment,” says Chin-Hong of UCSF. Those considered for treatment include immunocompromised people, pregnant people and children under 8.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People who don’t have those particular risk factors but still develop severe MPX also can receive treatment, Chin-Hong says. This includes those who develop extensive oral disease, as that makes it very difficult to eat and drink. “It’s like having a bunch of ulcers in your mouth,” he says. Those who develop the disease extensively in the rectal area or near the eyes also can receive treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The blisters and sores that develop can be quite painful, he adds: “Treatment is not only about vaccines and drug treatments but also about what specific symptoms the patient’s having.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He recommends talking to your physician about what pain you’re feeling and where. If the disease is in the rectal area, it can be painful to defecate. But there are many options available that can alleviate, or at least reduce, the pain you may be feeling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The MPX vaccine also can act as a sort of treatment, he says, but only when someone receives it shortly after being exposed. “In MPX, the incubation period is longer,” he explains. “So that means if you got a vaccine shortly after exposure — some people think within four days — it can impact and stop you from getting disease, even though you might have been exposed to an infection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you get the vaccine within 14 days of exposure, even though you might get the rash or disease, it will reduce your symptoms.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11919138\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11919138\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1378\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-800x574.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-1020x732.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-160x115.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/RS57175_GettyImages-1241638108-qut-1536x1102.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A vial of the Jynneos MPX vaccine. \u003ccite>(Bill O'Leary/The Washington Post via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Do we know how MPX interacts with COVID?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The California Department of Public Health stresses that MPX is “a completely different disease” from COVID, and that this outbreak is unrelated to COVID.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MPX is much less contagious than COVID and the way it spreads also is very different.

But if you received a smallpox vaccine before that time, you may be wondering whether it now affords you any protection against MPX, given that the MPX virus is related to the smallpox virus (although it’s generally less severe and far less contagious than smallpox).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Susan Philip, San Francisco’s health officer, says that being vaccinated against smallpox “would have some cross-protection” against MPX, and that “it does seem that people who have been vaccinated against smallpox in the past have partial protection, so they may not have as severe a case” of MPX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if you got your smallpox vaccine pre-1972, would you still have some immunity against MPX?

Some physicians are administering the drug TPOXX (also known as Tecovirimat or ST-246) to patients experiencing severe monkeypox symptoms. Tecovirimat is usually a two-week treatment and can be administered either through a capsule or an intravenous injection. The drug works by making it harder for the virus to infect new cells, therefore limiting the infection growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most people will get better on their own, but some people will require treatment,” said Dr. Chin-Hong of UCSF.

You might also assume MPX is related to chickenpox — it isn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jynneos was originally only available for people age 18 and older, but on August 9, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an emergency use authorization (EUA) that allows providers to also \u003ca href=\"https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/monkeypox-update-fda-authorizes-emergency-use-jynneos-vaccine-increase-vaccine-supply\">give the MPX vaccine to young people aged under 18\u003c/a> who are “determined to be at high risk” of MPX infection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re \u003ca href=\"#whomonkeypoxvaccine\">eligible for the MPX vaccine\u003c/a>, there are two scenarios in which you can get the vaccine:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If you have a confirmed or suspected exposure to MPX \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this case, the vaccine is given in the hope of preventing onset of the disease, or at least reducing the symptoms. \u003ca href=\"https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/considerations-for-monkeypox-vaccination.html\">This approach is called post-exposure prophylaxis, or PEP.\u003c/a> Read more about \u003ca href=\"#whenmonkeypoxvaccine\">when the MPX vaccine is most effective as PEP\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>If you haven’t necessarily had a confirmed or suspected exposure to MPX, but you’re still considered high-risk for contracting it\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this case, the vaccine is given in the hope of preventing onset of MPX.

Other Bay Area counties may already be offering second doses. \u003ca href=\"#whomonkeypoxvaccine\">Check your county’s information in our list. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Previously, second doses of the MPX vaccine were held back and delayed by some health jurisdictions, due to the low supply of vaccine doses from the federal government. At \u003ca href=\"#wheremonkeypoxvaccinenearme\">San Francisco’s walk-in MPX vaccine clinic at Zuckerberg San Francisco General (ZSFG)\u003c/a>, some patients were originally told by hospital staff that their second shot could safely be delayed as long as two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SF Health Officer Dr. Susan Philip has said that there’s “no harm” in getting your second dose of Jynneos beyond that 28-day mark, and that delaying second doses for some people while supply is low “will allow us to use our vaccine most efficiently.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, infectious disease specialist at UCSF Medical Center confirms that “it is indeed safe not to get a second dose of the vaccine at 28 days on time, and that “some data suggests that waiting as long as two years may be OK.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Of course we will likely not have to wait that long,” said Chin-Hong, but he encourages you to think of that second MPX vaccine more as a booster. “The first dose is really good (85%-90% protection after four days) and equivalent to two doses of an mRNA vaccine for COVID.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you’re immunocompromised, you still might be eligible to receive a second dose even if your county is still prioritizing first doses. The San Francisco Department of Public Health (SFDPH), for example, continued to offer this second dose to people “who have moderate to severe immune compromise as they may not develop immunity after just one dose.” SFDPH says this group includes “people on active cancer treatment, people who are taking medicine to suppress the immune system, and people with advanced or untreated HIV infection, among other conditions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"whomonkeypoxvaccine\">\u003c/a>Who can get an MPX vaccine?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As of September 6, the San Francisco Department of Public Health has expanded access to the Jynneos vaccine to \u003ci data-stringify-type=\"italic\">all\u003c/i> gay and bisexual men, and all trans people.

But if you received a smallpox vaccine before that time, you may be wondering whether it now affords you any protection against MPX, given that the MPX virus is related to the smallpox virus (although it’s generally less severe and far less contagious than smallpox).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Susan Philip, San Francisco’s health officer, says that being vaccinated against smallpox “would have some cross-protection” against MPX, and that “it does seem that people who have been vaccinated against smallpox in the past have partial protection, so they may not have as severe a case” of MPX.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if you got your smallpox vaccine pre-1972, would you still have some immunity against MPX? Right now, that still seems uncertain. Andrea McCollum, the poxvirus epidemiology team lead in the CDC’s division of high-consequence pathogens and pathology, said “\u003ca href=\"https://www.statnews.com/2022/05/19/a-cdc-expert-answers-questions-on-monkeypox/\">this is something we really haven’t teased out in individuals who had [smallpox] vaccination 50 years prior, 60 years prior\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Philip stresses that since a historic smallpox vaccine “may not be full protection” against MPX, the San Francisco Department of Public Health and the CDC recommend that even if you got a smallpox vaccine as a kid, you should definitely seek out an MPX vaccine if you’re exposed to MPX, to get “the fullest protection possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11920570\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11920570\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"A person's hand holds up a prescription pill cartridge labeled "Tecovirimat."\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-scaled.jpg 2560w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023301-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">TPOXX (also known as Tecovirimat or ST-246) is being used to treat those experiencing severe MPX.

Some physicians are administering the drug TPOXX (also known as Tecovirimat or ST-246) to patients experiencing severe monkeypox symptoms. Tecovirimat is usually a two-week treatment and can be administered either through a capsule or an intravenous injection. The drug works by making it harder for the virus to infect new cells, therefore limiting the infection growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most people will get better on their own, but some people will require treatment,” said Dr. Chin-Hong of UCSF. Those considered for treatment include immunocompromised people, pregnant people and children younger than 8 years old.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People who don’t have those particular risk factors but still develop severe MPX also can receive treatment, Chin-Hong says. This includes those who develop extensive oral disease, as that makes it very difficult to eat and drink. “It’s like having a bunch of ulcers in your mouth,” he said. Those who develop the disease extensively in the rectal area or near the eyes also can receive treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11920569\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2560px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11920569\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"A person empties out the pills from a prescription pill cartridge on to their other hand.\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1708\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-scaled.jpg 2560w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/07/GettyImages-1242023602-1920x1281.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">TPOXX works by making it harder for the virus to infect new cells, therefore limiting the infection growth.
