(FWA 2026/11/09) Mpox can be transmitted through intimate contact and vaccination is currently one of the most effective ways to prevent infection
Why is it important to take two doses?
One dose : Provides 40–80% protection against Mpox
Two doses : Provide approximately 90% protection against the Mpox virus
If you become infected with Mpox after vaccination, the symptoms are generally milder than those of someone who has not been vaccinated
Who should be especially vigilant?
•Individuals who have had multiple sexual partners, engaged in sex work, or had sex at commercial venues (saunas, hotels, motels) within the past year
•Anyone with a history of sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
•Individuals with a sexual partner who meets any of the above conditions
If you meet any of the above criteria you are eligible to receive the publicly-funded Mpox vaccine. Please take both doses of the vaccine as soon as possible
