People vaccinated against monkeypox were 14 times less likely than those who were not vaccinated to contract the disease, the CDC says.

People vaccinated against monkeypox were 14 times less likely than those who were not vaccinated to contract the disease, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky said

The results suggest that even one vaccine dose offers at least some protection against infection as early as two weeks after getting the shot, though Walensky stressed that two shots are still recommended. The White House will allow people to get vaccinated in other parts of the body besides the forearm, including their shoulder or upper back, after jurisdictions and advocates have reported to the government that some are declining to get the shot to avoid stigma from having a visible mark from the vaccine on their arm, said Demetre Daskalakis, the deputy White House monkeypox coordinator.Big Number

Oh, is this where they try to convince us that men who have sex with men are better protected from monkey pox if they've had the vaccine than normal people are? Cause seeing how there's no end to their BS that really wouldn't surprise me a bit if they go down that road.

They also used to say the COVID vax prevented infection. This demonstration of “science of the moment” is dangerous. Need to be more clear about what they’re actually saying CURRENTLY.

I don’t sleep around and I avoid people with weird shit on them pays to be germaphobic … and I’m not gay ( reference 2017 monkey pox Africa ( gay men ) ) uses google not me!

First on CNN: Unvaccinated individuals 14 times more likely to get monkeypox than vaccinated, new US data shows | CNN PoliticsEligible individuals who did not receive the monkeypox vaccine were around 14 times likelier to become infected with the virus than those who were vaccinated, according to federal government data described to CNN by multiple US health officials. Too bad the government and their media have already burned out all their credibility on Covid misinformation. I guess ill go get 7 shots of the monkey pox vax. Thank you for having my best interest in mind cnn and not Pfizer’s Instead of relying on the media to inform me correctly, I decided to do some reading about Monkeypox. I have come to the conclusion I do not need to be concerned for myself so I will not be getting the vaccine.
