Has anyone asked their doctor about monkeypox yet?
I just sent an email to my doctor to see if there was any kind of vaccine for it. From what I have read so far, it does not look like there is, but the smallpox vaccine is 80% effective against it. 80% is better than 0%.
Would you get a monkeypox or smallpox vaccine to try and prevent monkeypox?

Received my Moderma booster last Tuesday. Experienced two days with a fever over 100 degrees, and felt like a train ran over me. Went away in another day with the exception of some body aches.
