Elevated mpox cases spur efforts to avoid summer spread.
Since October, the number of mpox cases has increased, averaging about 200 cases per month. This has prompted attempts to prevent a summer surge similar to the one that occurred in 2022.
The first three months of this year have seen nearly twice the rate of instances reported at the same time last year, according to recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This discrepancy in numbers between the first quarter of 2023 and 2024 is astonishing.
