A new survey of 1,500 U.S. adults conducted in July 2024 finds that knowledge about mpox has declined.
Fewer than 1 in 5 people ( 17% ) know mpox is less contagious than Covid-19, down from 41% in August 2022 .
Less than half ( 45% ) know that a vaccine for mpox exists, and nearly two-thirds ( 63% ) are not sure.
Majority of cases are in people who are not vaccinated against mpox or have received only one of the two recommended doses.
The CDC has urged individuals to be vaccinated with two doses of the vaccine Jynneos four weeks apart.
70% of respondents in July 2024 said they were either very/somewhat likely to get the vaccine ( 68% ) or were already vaccinated ( 2% ).
