Monkeypox Resources
The Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra has declared the monkeypox outbreak a public health emergency. The American Nurses Association (ANA) supports this declaration, which will help deploy focused attention and critical resources to contain the nationwide outbreak. ANA stands ready to help disseminate evidence-based information to both nurses and the public, and to counter misinformation and mitigate stigma about the virus.
Heeding the many lessons learned from COVID-19, ANA calls for swift action and effective collaboration among federal, state, and local officials to ensure nurses and all health care professionals have the highest level of protection and preparation to respond. (Read More)
Monkeypox resources:
- CDC Information for Health Care Professionals
- CDC Clinician FAQs
- CDC Webinar – Monkeypox Outbreak: Updates on the Epidemiology, Testing, Treatment, and Vaccination
One of the greatest concerns is the need to reduce stigma so that individuals can access and receive the care necessary to treat monkeypox and reduce the spread. Another critical resource is the CDC’s information on reducing stigma in monkeypox communication and community engagement. More to come from ANA as we work together to address this public health emergency.
