Monkeypox. Lord. I’m pregnant and my toddler goes to daycare. To say I’m nervous about how the disease progresses through the population is an understatement.

I saw this and thought it might be helpful to share. (I also have a toddler and a baby and their pediatrician doesn’t have any MPX vaccines.)

Totally reasonable to be anxious about it. Kids in daycare get everything. I'm frankly surprised we haven't gotten HFM yet and it seems like monkeypox presents somewhat similarly.

Does your local public health have any vaccine available if you have an exposure?

Supposedly yes. My OB will be the first to know. Unfortunately pregnant people are not eligible to get the vaccine preemptively /without exposure. It’s scary that we don’t have enough vaccine currently to include that population, considering how it affects them.

It is transferred via sustained skin to skin contact. If you follow Emily Oster at all she wrote about it this week and it’s worth a read to assuage some of those fears.
