DENVER – The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is working with LGBTQ advocacy organizations to provide monkeypox mobile vaccine units as cases of the virus continue to grow across the state.
“Just because MPV is currently impacting 96% to 98% of the LGBTQ+ population across this across the United States currently, it doesn't mean that it could begin to impact more folks outside of our LGBTQ population, which is also of concern,” Gillian Ford, communications director for One Colorado, told Denver7 Wednesday.
“We are advocating at One Colorado alongside our statewide and national partners to shift from the term monkeypox to a more clinically derived term like MPV to move away from some racist and stigmatizing history of the term monkeypox,” Ford said. “People perceive that a virus like MPV comes from monkeys and that is not true.”
“It is or has affected, you know, LGBT or men having sex with men, right. But it's in our community, and we're all a community,” Aragon said. “I've been trying for the past couple of weeks to get this monkeypox vaccine, like there is a sense of relief that I have it now.”
