The US has experienced a 150% increase in mpox cases, with the CDC recommending complete vaccination to those at risk, especially as June's Pride Month gatherings may lead to a surge. Individuals, especially Black and Hispanic LGBTQ+ communities, are urged to get vaccinated with two doses of the Jynneos vaccine to prevent infection. Health experts are concerned about potential outbreaks if vaccination rates remain low, emphasizing the need to reach at-risk populations and address barriers in care.
