State health officials are hosting monkeypox vaccine clinics this week to prevent the further spread of the virus in Colorado as cases continue to grow worldwide.
DENVER –
Appointments for the monkeypox vaccine on Friday and Saturday are available on a first-come, first-serve basis and can be made online once people interested in the vaccine fill out this form, which will include a symptom screening process where Coloradans can self-attest to their eligibility. Those eligible will then receive a follow-up confirmation email to schedule a vaccine appointment.
Seven cases of the virus have so far been reported in Colorado as of Tuesday, according to the latest data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention . HHS officials said in a call with reporters they expected 750,000 more doses to be available over the summer with another 500,000 available throughout the fall, according to ABC News.
Symptoms can include fever, headaches, muscle aches, exhaustion, backaches, swollen lymph nodes and chills, followed by a rash which usually begins in the face and spreads to other parts of the body, including the genital area and anus.
