Monkeypox Outbreak: "We owe it to gay and bisexual men to inform them where the risk is now and to support reducing risk," said Victorian Chief Health Officer, Prof Brett Sutton.
Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and out gay minister for Equality Harriet Shing said that the public health messaging around monkeypox should not "single out" the LGBTQI community.
Australia will roll out monkeypox vaccines from Monday August 8. Vaccinations will be prioritised for gay, bisexual and men who have sex with men who are at high risk of exposure.
