\n

Just a few days after the World Health Organization (WHO) announced the end of the mpox (formerly monkeypox)<\/u><\/a> international emergency, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued an alert of a resurgence of new cases in the Chicago area.<\/p>\n

Between April 17 and May 5, the Chicago Department of Public Health<\/u><\/a> (CDPH) reported a total of 12 confirmed cases and one probable case of mpox.<\/p>\n

All the cases involved men between ages 24 and 46, all of whom showed symptoms of the infection, per the CDC alert.<\/p>\n

None of them had been hospitalized at the time the alert was issued.<\/p>\n

In nearly 70% of the new cases, the infected men had received two doses of the JYNNEOS vaccine.<\/p>\n

The majority of cases (69%) were of non-Hispanic White men, 15% were non-Hispanic Black men and 15% were Asian men.<\/p>\n

Four of the men recently traveled out of state to New York City<\/u><\/a>, New Orleans and Mexico, the CDC stated.<\/p>\n

Mpox is an infectious disease caused by the monkeypox virus. It spreads through any type of close contact and primarily affects men who have sex with men.\u00a0<\/p>\n

An international outbreak of mpox began in May 2022, peaking that summer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Since then, cases have steadily declined, “likely because of a combination of temporary changes in sexual behavior, vaccination and infection-induced immunity,” the CDC stated.<\/p>\n

There have been 87,000 confirmed cases of mpox and 140 deaths globally, according to data from the WHO.<\/p>\n

As of May 10, a total of 30,395 cases have been reported in the U.S., per the CDC.<\/p>\n

Mpox typically causes a rash that can appear on the hands, feet, chest, face, mouth and\/or genitals.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The rash goes through several stages before scabbing over and healing.<\/p>\n

Other common symptoms include fever, chills, fatigue, muscle aches, headache, swollen lymph nodes, cough, sore throat and nasal congestion.<\/p>\n

A two-dose vaccine, JYNNEOS, is available to protect against both mpox and smallpox.<\/p>\n

The CDC recommends that at-risk people get vaccinated to prevent severe disease.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dr. Marc Siegel, a professor of medicine at NYU Langone Medical Center and a Fox News medical contributor, credits the vaccine for helping to end the 2022 outbreak.<\/p>\n

“The use of ring vaccination, where those who were close to monkeypox cases are vaccinated, played a role,” he told Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

Only 23% of the at-risk population has been fully vaccinated, the CDC reported.<\/p>\n

“The projected risk of a resurgent mpox outbreak is greater than 35% in most jurisdictions in the United States without additional vaccination or adapting sexual behavior to prevent the spread of mpox,” the CDC report stated.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Resurgent outbreaks in these communities could be as large or larger than in 2022.”<\/p>\n

To prevent new outbreaks, the CDC advises doctors to encourage vaccination<\/u><\/a> and to test patients for mpox even if they have been vaccinated or already had the disease.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
