Contra Costa Health Services recently announced that an increase in monkeypox vaccine supply enabled the county to open online appointment booking without a waiting list.
Monkeypox is largely being spread via prolonged skin-to-skin contact rather than more intimate activities like kissing or sexual activity.
While the vaccine is normally administered in two doses, four weeks apart, the state has focused on administering an initial vaccine dose to as many high-risk people as possible to ensure they have some level of protection against the virus. Second doses are expected to become available once more vaccine is available in general.
