OHA Recommends Mpox Vaccinations With Rise In Cases

(Portland, OR) -- The Oregon Health Authority is reminding people to get the mpox vaccination. There have been 17 cases reported since July 20th. While that's below the 10 to 15 cases reported each week at the height of the 2022 outbreak, the current cases show the virus continues to spread in Oregon. They're asking doctors treating patients with rashes and other symptoms similar to mpox to have those people tested for the virus.
