Updated #monkeypox epidemic curve from @CDCgov and the vaccine update-let’s make a push to get shots in arms (shoulders or backs)! Unvaccinated folks w current or future risk should complete their two shots while maintaining behavior change!

October 28th is #OXI day in #Greece , a day celebrating the courage to say no to a Goliath or a bully or a tyrant. Always remember the positive power of “no” and the courage needed to live authentically and with freedom. Thanks to the #OxiCourageAward for an inspiring event.

Updated epidemic curve showing continued progress. Thanks to the communities of MSM and others affected by #Monkeypox for keeping up with testing, first and second doses of vaccine, and the personal measures they have taken to avoid exposure. 1/2

Amazing study that confirms the @CDCgov MMWR finding that shows the behavioral actions taken by gay, bisexual and other MSM and transgender folks to stop #monkeypox . We need to use every tool in the toolkit to control this outbreak- behavior change, vaccines, & testing!

After more than 40 years of HIV research and significant biomedical advancements to treat and prevent HIV transmission, many state laws are outdated and do not reflect current understanding of HIV. Read more: #HIVisNotaCrime

“As you're developing plans for HIV prevention, how can you not include strategies that address viral hepatitis, drug use, overdoses?” he said. “You can't because that's what the people want. And so that's what the people should be given.” #hiv #syndemic #mpox @politico @CDCgov
