These measures are especially important if you have comorbidities and/or a weakened immune system. Irfan Hafiz, an infectious disease specialist with Northwestern Medicine’s McHenry and Huntley hospitals, previously said the virus causes symptoms that are similar to several maladies, including chickenpox or smallpox." The CDPH urges those who meet the eligibility criteria to get both doses of the MPV vaccine 28 days apart. Monkeypox cases across the city have plummeted from their late July peak, when the CDPH reported 142 new cases.

Health experts have praised the once-scarce vaccine as an effective tool in halting the virus’s spread. The virus can spread from the time symptoms begin until the rash has fully healed and a fresh layer of skin has formed (usually about 2-4 weeks). It's not yet clear if the virus can spread through saliva, semen, or vaginal fluids.
