Cases in NYC


As of July 22, 839 people in New York City have tested positive for orthopoxvirus/monkeypox. Cases in NYC are increasing, and there are likely many more cases that have not been diagnosed.

Anyone can get and spread monkeypox. The current cases are primarily spreading among social networks of gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM). If you are an MSM and have multiple or anonymous sex partners, your likelihood of exposure is high.

If you have a new or unexpected rash or sores, contact a health care provider.

The following data, which has a two-day reporting lag, will be updated weekly:

Vaccination Appointments

Note: All available appointments have been filled at this time, but some may become available again due to cancellations or rescheduling.


Vaccine supply remains low. NYC is receiving a limited number of doses from the federal government, and we are making them available to New Yorkers as quickly as possible.
Second Doses

People should get the second dose of the two-dose vaccine at least four weeks after the first dose. You will start to build protection in the days and weeks after your first dose, but you will not have full immunity from the vaccine until two weeks after the second dose.
New York City is currently prioritizing first doses to get more people protected while the vaccine supply is low. If you have received the first dose, you will be contacted about scheduling the second dose in the coming weeks. If necessary, you can wait longer than four weeks between doses.
To get text alerts about vaccination appointments and other monkeypox updates for NYC, text “MONKEYPOX” to 692-692.
Testing

If you have symptoms of monkeypox, you should see a health care provider for testing. If you do not have a provider, call 311 or search the NYC Health Map. You should only get tested for monkeypox if you are experiencing symptoms.
Testing involves a provider taking a swab of a sore. Only your provider — not the Health Department — can give you the test result. While you are waiting for your test result, which can take a few days, isolate from others.

New York Gov. Hochul declares state disaster emergency over monkeypox

July 30, 2022, 2:43 AM UTC / Updated July 30, 2022, 10:30 PM UTC

By Dennis Romero

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul declared a state disaster emergency Friday night over the continued spread of monkeypox. The announcement was followed Saturday by a public health emergency declaration in New York City.

Hochul said the emergency declaration would lead to swifter response and better vaccination distribution. It came a day after the New York State Commissioner of Health declared monkeypox an "imminent threat to public health."

“I am declaring a State Disaster Emergency to strengthen our ongoing efforts to confront the monkeypox outbreak,” Hochul tweeted Friday.

Hochul indicated the state is an emerging center for the virus, which manifests in symptoms of rashes and lesions across the body, extremities and genitals.

... The emergency, enacted through executive order, allows EMS personnel, pharmacists, midwives, physicians and certified nurse practitioners to administer vaccinations, the governor's office said in a statement.

The state was already in the process of securing more vaccines, expanding testing, and distributing information via a website and a text notification system, the governor's office said.

On Saturday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Dr. Ashwin Vasan, the city's Department of Health and Mental Hygiene commissioner, declared a public health emergency in the city.

The declaration allows the city health department to issue emergency commissioner's orders and amends health code provisions "to provide for measures to help slow the spread," the mayor's office said in a statement.

“New York City is currently the epicenter of the outbreak, and we estimate that approximately 150,000 New Yorkers may currently be at risk for monkeypox exposure," the statement said. "This outbreak must be met with urgency, action, and resources, both nationally and globally, and this declaration of a public health emergency reflects the seriousness of the moment."
