AUSTIN, Texas – Austin Public Health (APH) reports community
spread of monkeypox in Austin-Travis County as additional cases
are identified and confirmed. APH continues to provide key
information to the public in an effort to prevent the spread of
monkeypox within the community and educate the public on
preventative steps they can take to avoid exposure and protect
themselves.

People should try to avoid skin-to-skin contact with strangers,
especially those who have a rash or whose health history is
unknown. The virus can also be spread through contaminated
clothing or bed linens, and by sharing eating utensils or cups,
cigarettes or vaping devices, kissing, and other activities
where saliva might be exchanged with a person who has monkeypox.

“We need to be safe and follow practices we’ve learned from
COVID-19 to prevent the spread of monkeypox here in our
community,” said Dr. Desmar Walkes, Austin-Travis County Health
Authority. “Try to reduce close, intimate interactions with
those whose health history you’re unaware of. Use hand
sanitizer, and wear masks when in close quarters with others who
have symptoms.”

Monkeypox can be spread to anyone, regardless of sexual
orientation and travel history. While the virus is known for
causing patients to have a rash, symptoms can also include
fever, muscle and body aches, headaches, chills and swollen
lymph nodes.

“Stigma and blame undermine trust and capacity to respond
effectively during outbreaks like this one,” said APH Director
Adrienne Sturrup. “We know from experience that stigmatizing
rhetoric can disable an evidence-based response with fear,
driving people away from health services and impeding case
investigations.”

As of Tuesday, six monkeypox cases and seven presumptive cases
were confirmed in Austin-Travis County. Local monkeypox case
totals will be updated online every Thursday.

Monkeypox does not spread easily between people without close
contact. The virus can be transmitted by person-to-person
contact including:

Direct contact with the infectious rash, scabs, or body fluids.
Respiratory secretions during prolonged, face-to-face contact,
or during intimate physical contact, such as massages, kissing,
cuddling, sex, or contact with genitals.
Touching fabrics and objects that were used by a person with
monkeypox and that have not been disinfected such as bedding,
towels, and other personal items.
Pregnant people can spread the virus to their fetus through the
placenta.
Symptoms of monkeypox can include:

Fever
Headache
Muscle aches and backache
Swollen lymph nodes
Chills
Exhaustion
A rash that can look like pimples or blisters that appears on
the face, inside the mouth, and on other parts of the body, like
the hands/palms, feet, chest, genitals, or anus.
The rash goes through different stages before healing
completely. The illness typically lasts 2-4 weeks.
There are several measures that can be taken to prevent
infection with monkeypox:

Minimize skin-to-skin contact, especially if a person has been
exposed to the virus, showing a rash or skin sores.
Avoid contact with any materials, such as bedding, that have
been in contact with monkeypox.
Practice good hand hygiene. For example, washing your hands with
soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
Use personal protective equipment (PPE), mask, gloves, eye
protection and gowns when caring for people infected with
monkeypox.
