Mpox Cases Rising in California: Get Vaccinated

Mpox Cases Rising in California: Get Vaccinated

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

California health officials warn of rising mpox cases, urging vaccination and caution. Two strains are circulating—clade one linked to travel and clade two through close contact. A clade one case was recently reported in San Francisco, and clade two infections are rising. Vaccination is key, with the Jynneos shot offering protection. Mpox spreads via close contact, causing fever, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, and a rash. Most infections are mild but contagious until lesions heal. Summer travel and events make now the ideal time to protect yourself and partners. Officials recommend two vaccine doses for eligible individuals, avoiding close contact with symptomatic people, maintaining hygiene, and seeking medical attention if symptoms appear. As cases rise, staying informed and proactive is crucial—get checked, get vaccinated, and stay safe.
