The Mpox Health Emergency in the US has ended, but health officials are concerned about the possibility of summertime outbreaks in cities across the country. More than 30,000 cases were reported last year, with most of them spread through sexual contact between gay and bisexual men. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has issued a health alert to US doctors to watch for new cases and published a modeling study estimating the likelihood of mpox resurgence in 50 counties that have been the focus of a government campaign to control sexually transmitted diseases.
