Local communities, leadership raise concerns about spread of Monkeypox
PHILADELPHIA - There's a growing concern among Philadelphia's gay community about the health risks of Monkeypox and the stigma linked to it. Darryl Moore, a Philadelphia man, believes the public needs clear and concise information on the spread of the virus with a focus on at-risk groups, like gay men."I don’t want this to turn into another gay disease because it’s not true this affects everybody," Moore said. "I know they're saying that men with men are the most at-risk, but this can affect everyone." Philadelphia's Health Department has reported 63 cases of Monkeypox, a considerable rise from 11 cases earlier this month.
