Public Health Conversation — Monkeypox: Old Disease, New Fears.
- Starts: 12:00 pm on Monday, August 29, 2022
- Ends: 1:30 pm on Monday, August 29, 2022
This program will explore the importance of stopping the spread of monkeypox without encouraging the spread of stigma. Speakers will address both the epidemiological and social challenges posed by the disease, including what we can learn from past disease outbreaks and from the COVID pandemic. As the country grapples with how best to address monkeypox, there is little doubt that doing so requires both an effective public health response and a clear eye on the challenges of stigma that can readily emerge around the disease.
Cohosted with The LGBTQIA+ Center for Faculty & Staff and the Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases.
