SF to receive 8,000 more doses of monkeypox vaccine

San Francisco will receive another 1,600 vials of monkeypox vaccine in the coming days, making some 8,000 doses available to high-risk residents, the city’s public health department said Monday.

As a condition of the allocation, vaccine clinics at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and other locations will begin administering monkeypox vaccines just under the skin rather than into muscle or fat tissue.
