Monkeypox (MPV)

Monkeypox virus (MPV) infection can cause an illness that includes rashes and other symptoms. It does not commonly occur in the United States, but there is currently an outbreak of MPV with cases spreading in Washington state and across the country, as well as in other countries. MPV can spread person-to-person with any kind of close, skin-to-skin contact, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, or age, including children. Anyone can get MPV. MPV can also spread between animals and from animals to people.

​Monkeypox Data Washington State


MPV Vaccine InformationAs of September 09, 2022, 12:31 AM (PDT), there have been 12874 administrations of MPV vaccine entered into the Washington State Immunization Information System (WAIIS). All of these administrations have been the JYNNEOS vaccine. A total of 11460 Washington state residents have received an MPV vaccine, of which 1153 are fully vaccinated (i.e., have received two JYNNEOS).
There are two vaccines available for MPV: JYNNEOS and ACAM2000. The current MPV outbreak response has focused on distributing JYNNEOS. As of the end of July 2022, there were no administrations of ACAM2000, although this analysis monitors for them. JYNNEOS is administered in two doses, the second of which is recommended 24-35 days after the first dose.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD) are the most commonly reported diseases in Washington State. Many are curable, others are treatable, all are preventable. Most people with STDs don't have obvious symptoms, but without treatment they can spread disease and possibly develop serious complications. Our STD program staff can help answer questions.
