There are 98 confirmed or probable cases of monkeypox as of Aug. 8 in San Diego County.

"It's been very tough, I will tell you because the supply is very limited from the federal government," said Dr. William Tseng."So San Diego gets a limited amount and then they distribute as much as they can to all the health systems so that we can provide prevention for our patients."

While the virus is not known to be deadly or cause much hospitalization, there’s still much concern for those who are dealing with the symptoms.
