Shaw Local News Network Following Gov. JB Pritzker’s declaration of the monkeypox virus (MPV) as a public health emergency, the Whiteside County Health Department is providing an update on the JYNNEOS vaccine (also known as Imvamune or Imvanex), which has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the prevention of the monkeypox virus infection. Because of limited supply, the JYNNEOS vaccine currently is prioritized in areas with recent cases of MPV and currently is not available in Whiteside
County. WCHD will issue additional information and guidance once the vaccine becomes available. To help protect yourself and others from MPV and other illnesses, individuals who develop a new or unusual rash or who have symptoms of MPV should contact their primary health care provider. Individuals are encouraged to take the following steps to reduce their risks of getting MPV: • Avoid close, skin-to-skin contact with people who have a rash that looks like MPV.
• Do not touch the rash or scabs of a person with MPV. • Do not kiss, hug, cuddle or have sex with someone with MPV. • Avoid contact with objects and materials that a person with MPV has used. • Do not share eating utensils or cups with a person with MPV. • Do not handle or touch the bedding, towels or clothing of a person with MPV. • Wash your hands often with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, especially before eating or touching your face and after you use
