Cases of the monkeypox virus have been spreading in several countries, including the U.S.. Many of those contracting the virus are gay and bisexual men, although the virus is believed to be spreading through close physical contact but not sexual transmission.

We speak with epidemiologist Gregg Gonsalves about monkeypox and then get an update from him on where we’re at in this point in the Covid pandemic.
