CDC documenting a Monkeypox reinfection, plus slides & transcript from a COCA call in June 2022
CDC experts discuss swabbing, symptoms, vaccination, and more
The CDC is aware of a single case report of a possible reinfection with monkeypox, but the agency expects that to be a rare scenario, Petersen noted.
"What we don't know is with this new outbreak, and the new epidemiology and route of transmission, whether that may impact some of what was previously seen with monkeypox and other related viruses, like smallpox. So, I think there's still more to learn there," he added.
"The only security we have is our ability to adapt."
This COCA Call will present what clinicians need to know about monkeypox including guidance about the typical clinical presentation, treatment options, pre- and post-exposure prophylaxis, and reporting to public health authorities. Presenters
