What is Monkeypox?

MPX (formerly Monkeypox) is a virus that spreads through prolonged skin to skin contact, sex, kissing, breathing at very close range, or sharing bedding and clothing.
MPX is rare and currently a low threat to the general public.
It can be serious, though most cases resolve on their own. Seeing a doctor right away is important.
Having sex or close physical contact with multiple people can put you at higher risk for MPX if it is spreading in the community.
It appears as a distinctive rash or sores on the skin anywhere on the body, especially in the genital area. It often begins as flu-like symptoms.
We are working with state and federal agencies to monitor for MPX , and to help control the spread of the virus.
