November 29, 2022: We are updating webpages with the term "mpox" to reduce stigma and other issues associated with prior terminology. This change is aligned with the recent CDC and World Health Organization decisions.
For more information on getting monkeypox vaccination, contact your local health department. In Baltimore City, visit the Baltimore City Health Department's mpox page.
You can pre-register to receive a vaccination, as resources become available, by visiting the Maryland Department of Health's pre-registration page here.
If you are an existing Chase Brexton patient and would like to schedule an appointment to receive the mpox vaccine, please schedule here. Note: mpox vaccines can only be scheduled at our Mt. Vernon Center.
In late July, the World Health Organization declared the growing mpox outbreak a public health emergency. As the outbreak has spread, keeping informed and understanding protection measures is even more important. For more information about mpox, check out these resources:
- The CDC’s mpox resource page
- The Baltimore City Health Department
