Macca and Nevena talk to Dr Christian McGrath, Acting Vic Chief Health Officer, MPOX Update.
Monkeypox outbreaks and vaccinations
There is currently an outbreak of mpox in Victoria with an increased risk of local transmission, mostly impacting gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM). Unrecognised transmission is likely to be occurring with many cases within this outbreak unlinked.
Mpox continues to spread in many countries and the risk linked to international travel is ongoing. Since May 2022, there has been a large international outbreak of mpox that is predominantly impacting gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men.
As of 4 July, 61 mpox cases have been notified in Victoria since April 2024. Up to date Victorian mpox case numbers are available in the public-facing Notifiable conditions report. Data are updated daily.
