Alaska has recorded its second monkeypox infection. State epidemiologist Dr. Joe McLaughlin says he expects the case count to rise steadily.
This electron microscope image shows mature, oval-shaped monkeypox virions and spherical immature virions obtained from a sample of human skin associated with a 2003 prairie dog outbreak.
“It’s not spread through casual conversations or by walking past somebody in a grocery store,” McLaughlin said. Alaska has about 330 doses of vaccine, according to McLaughlin. The state will have an opportunity to order more from the federal government in about two weeks. Some states with higher case counts already have long waitlists for the vaccine.
