I’m proud to name FEMA’s Robert Fenton as the White House National Monkeypox Response Coordinator and Dr. Demetre Daskalakis as his Deputy. Together, they have over four decades of experience in emergency response and public health, including COVID response and HIV prevention.
#Encephalitis caused by #Monkeypox has been described prior to the current outbreak The @WHO clinical management & IPC guidelines have recommendations on how to manage and evaluate patients with #MPX associated encephalitis These recommendations are outlined in a 🧵👇
Read CDC’s updated recommendations for people with #monkeypox. If you have monkeypox, isolate until your rash has fully healed. If you need to go out, cover your rash, wear a well-fitting mask, and avoid public transportation. Learn more: bit.ly/3QeRJXg.
A big upto 30% of patients of #monkeypox have eye lesions from painful, swollen eyelids to permanent scarring of the cornea & permanent blindness in 10% , that is not a happy situation for anyone whether it is at individual level or societal level & therefore it needs to ctd)
Also, transmission risk is multidimensional. Prolonged close contact seems to be key in transmission, but different exposures are not equally effective. The combination of network & contact patterns, exposure route & biology result in MPX disproportionally affecting GBMSM. (n/8)
🔴 Peru 🇵🇪 confirms death of a patient with #Monkeypox and #HIV 11th Monkeypox death since the May 2022 outbreak. rpp.pe/peru/actualida…
Pretty much everyone would like the name #monkeypox changed. Achieving that end is tricker than you would think. statnews.com/2022/08/01/the…
This. 👇🏼 Anyone who thinking about the #monkeypox outbreak as a domestic problem — something an individual country can solve within its own borders and then be in the clear — is deluding themselves.
Dr. Dimie Ogoina of Nigeria detected monkeypox in an 11-year-old patient in 2017 — and noticed changes in how the virus was spreading as an outbreak ballooned quietly over several years. He tried to warn health officials. Somebody told him to be quiet. n.pr/3bd8SkI
"Every American should pay attention to monkeypox. Monkeypox is not COVID but it is contagious. It is painful and can be dangerous," @SecBecerra says.
Big news. This will likely mean Flow Health and other labs will need to submit EUAs for testing. Curious if Biden will try to use this order to prevent labs from testing. Trump didn't pick favorites - Biden on the otherhand...
BREAKING: U.S. preparing to declare public health emergency for monkeypox, sources say - Politico
We need a test with Salvia for pre-symptomatic close contacts. We are ramping up and establishing more partners to build additional clinical evidence to determine how early we can detect MPX in saliva (pre-lesions).
Need to scale up vaccination big time. “Test, trace, isolate” systems in the US may not be efficient enough yet again
Cook County reported the first confirmed case of a person with monkeypox in Cook County jail. There are 5,500 people incarcerated in that jail, today.
Today, the FDA is announcing it has approved a supplement to the biologics license for the JYNNEOS Vaccine, which is approved to prevent smallpox and monkeypox, to allow for additional manufacturing capabilities at one of the plants where the vaccine is made.
This UK chart counters claims that #monkeypox appears to spread predominantly among gay and bi men only because women aren't testing. This isn't true. Test positivity rates control for differences in testing rates: men, 54%; women, 2%, children, 0.6%. 7/ gov.uk/government/pub…
More than 323,000 vaccine doses have been delivered to states and locals. Another 800,000 doses are now in position to be distributed rapidly, pending FDA authorization. Hope is that that may occur in coming days 3/x
1st case of #monkeypox in a pregnant woman in the US has been reported. Good news is mom & baby are doing well, given that it can be more severe during pregnancy. Bad news is we’re not vaccinating high-risk gay/bi/trans/MSM networks fast enough. cbsnews.com/amp/news/monke…
