Most providers can now do testing for monkeypox through commercial laboratories. If the individual does not have a regular provider, please call the Health Referral Line for assistance.
Monkeypox Vaccines
Due to a very limited vaccine supply, the monkeypox vaccine (Jynneos) will only be available to high-risk groups. Please visit the website to view the vaccine availability and eligibility by group.
Individuals who have been exposed to Monkeypox and are seeking vaccination, can sign up through www.Othena.com and be added to the virtual queue to be vaccinated as doses are available. Please also check with primary care provider to check availability.
Second Doses for Group B
Individuals will be contacted through email via Othena to schedule second dose vaccine appointments at clinics supplying second dose vaccine, as close to the due date for second doses as possible. This will be based on vaccine supply availability. Individuals must wait to receive notification through Othena, and may receive a notification to schedule for a second dose with short notice due to short supply chain timelines.
