The number of U.S. mpox cases has significantly increased, with a 150% rise from last year, mainly affecting men in gay and bisexual communities. Public health officials are encouraging those at risk to get fully vaccinated, especially Black and Hispanic LGBTQ+ individuals, as low vaccination rates could lead to a resurgence of the disease. Experts emphasize the importance of two doses of the Jynneos vaccine four weeks apart, particularly for high-risk groups.
