The Australian Federation of AIDS Organisations (AFAO) has organised a free Virtual National MonkeyPox Forum, which takes place on Monday, October 10 at 6:30pm.According to the AFAO, the forum is designed to help members of the community make informed decisions regarding Monkeypox (MPXV).
It will cover current ways to protect yourself from MPXV, as well as address any community concerns or questions. Moderated by AFAO’s Deputy CEO Heath Paynter, the speakers at the event include Australia’s Deputy Chief Medical Officer Professor Michael Kidd, Kirby Institute’s sexual health medicine specialist Dr Vincent Cornelisse, ACON’s Acting Director of HIV & Sexual Health Matthew Vaughan.
According to Paynter, “This is an important opportunity to engage with leading health professionals who can help the community make informed decisions about staying safe,” he said. “The forum will provide essential information about monkeypox and how it is affecting Australians. “It will also discuss how the community can protect themselves,” Paynter said, “with a particular focus on vaccination, as well as address any community concerns and questions.” Currently, the vaccine is being administered intradermally.
This means it is given via a shallow injection into the forearm. MPXV symptoms can include a rash, painful skin lesions or sores on the face, mouth, genitals, and anus.
