Some hope that this declaration would assist with dealing with the spreading virus. The demographic that has reported monkeypox the most involve gay and bisexual men. However, the article states that anybody could get it through close physical contact.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">From CNBC<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra has the authority to declare a public health emergency under the Public Health Services Act. A declaration can help mobilize federal financial assistance to respond to a disease outbreak.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. has reported more than 2,500 monkeypox cases so far across 44 states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The largest outbreaks are in New York, California, Illinois, Florida, D.C. and Georgia.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden administration\u2019s response to the outbreak has come under scrutiny from Congress as infections rise. Fifty House Democrats, in a letter to President Joe Biden this week, called for the administration to declare a public health emergency in response to the outbreak.<\/p>\n<p>Senate Health Committee Chair Patty Murray, in a letter to HHS Secretary Becerra, said she is worried about the U.S. response to the outbreak. Murray said some patients and health-care providers do not have the information and resources they need to test for monkeypox and respond to the outbreak.<\/p>\n<p>CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said last week that demand for the vaccines is outstripping the available supply. Many people are struggling to get vaccinated amid long lines outside clinics.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. has shipped more than 300,000 doses of the monkeypox vaccine, called Jynneos, to city and state health departments so far, Jha told reporters Friday. The Food and Drug Administration is in the process of authorizing an additional 786,000 doses stored at the manufacturer Bavarian Nordic\u2019s facility in Denmark for distribution in the U.S.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This post supplements the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=128271#comments\">Because, Monkeypox!<\/a> post by AW1Ed and is dated around the same time.
