LOS ANGELES—Los Angeles County health officials will expand access to monkeypox vaccines on July 10, but the limited supply of doses means they will only be provided to high-risk residents who are specifically contacted by the Department of Public Health.
As of Friday, there were a total of 54 confirmed monkeypox cases in the county, nearly double the number from a week ago. But public health officials insisted during an online briefing Friday that the risk of infection in the general population remains extremely low.
