What is monkeypox and how does it spread? TPAN Chicago distributed the vaccine as cases in Illinois climb. Symptoms include active lesions.
EDGEWATER, Ill. -- The line at Edgewater's TPAN service center extended nearly to the end of the block Monday afternoon.
"I could not believe the line outside, which shows how urgent this is and how afraid people are and it makes me sick that we have so few doses of the vaccine to offer people," said TPAN CEO Kara Eastman. Nearly 1,500 people have been diagnosed nationwide, with the number continuing to grow, primarily among gay men. But infectious disease experts stressed this is not a sexually transmitted disease.
While the numbers remain low, they are growing rapidly. There is concern most cases are going undetected with not enough testing in place. It is part of the reason Steve Moran made coming to get vaccinated a priority.
