Public health officials came armed with a serious message for Pride Month: Get vaccinated against mpox.
Authorities recently reported finding drug-resistant strains of the monkeypox virus.
More than 20 cases of mpox have been reported in the Chicago area since mid-April, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said this week it is concerned about a resurgence in the virus this summer. Roxana Saberi has the details.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are warning about the potential of an mpox resurgence this summer and urging people most at risk to get vaccinated. Chicago has reported around 20 new cases after infections had declined substantially since last year's outbreak. CBS News correspondent Roxana Saberi has more.
The CDC is expected to release new vaccine effectiveness data this week.
After weeks of few to no cases in the U.S., Chicago health officials warned of a "resurgence" in mpox.
The World Health Organization says monkeypox is being renamed mpox in order to combat racist associations and stigma associated with the original name. Both names will be used during a transition period over the next year. Dr. Jay Varma, director of the Cornell Center for Pandemic Prevention and Response at Weill Cornell Medicine, joins "CBS News Mornings" to discuss the name change and what we've learned thus far about the virus.
The World Health Organization urged countries to adopt the new name for the disease, citing the "ongoing negative impact" of the original.
The new deaths come as the pace of new infections in the monkeypox outbreak has been largely slowing nationwide.
Health officials warn this year's flu season could be more severe than the last two. CBS anchors Anne-Marie Green and Vladimir Duthiers spoke with U.S. Secretary of Health and Human services Xavier Becerra about how the administration is preparing.

Dr. Celine Gounder, editor-at-large for public health at Kaiser Health News, joined CBS News to talk about the president's statement and the ongoing global efforts against both COVID and the recent monkeypox outbreak.
With flu season approaching, Dr. David Agus also urged people to get their flu shots.
The White House monkeypox response coordinator says cases are down nearly 50% since the start of August. Dr. Céline Gounder, editor-at-large for public health at Kaiser Health News, joins CBS News to weigh in on the progress and why officials are concerned the virus could mutate. She also discusses the recent reemergence of polio in the New York area and offers advice for concerned Americans.

"Africa is still not benefiting from either monkeypox vaccines or the antiviral treatments," says one expert, lamenting the latest risky case of medical inequity.
The Justice Department has agreed to one of former President Trump's nominees for "Special Master" in its probe of allegedly mishandled White House documents, but it's still unclear when the special master will be chosen by a U.S. district judge. Los Angeles County has the country's first confirmed death from monkeypox and, at The Emmys, "The White Lotus," "Ted Lasso" and "Succession" picked up some of the biggest awards.
Officials in Los Angeles County said autopsy results could be available in "as soon as a few days."
The White House deputy coordinator for the monkeypox response, Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, joins CBS News to discuss the administration’s new initiative to inoculate high-risk Americans who previously lacked access to the monkeypox vaccine.
More than 18,400 cases of monkeypox have been confirmed in the U.S. so far. While only 17 of those are children under the age of 16, some parents are concerned that the number will grow as kids head back to school. Dr. Susannah Hills, a pediatric airway surgeon at Columbia University Medical Center, joins CBS News to discuss what parents need to know about that, plus the new COVID booster shot formula targeting Omicron subvariants.
A patient in Texas is the first person with monkeypox to die in the current U.S. outbreak. The Texas Health Department is looking into whether the disease played a role in their death. Denis Nash, the executive director at CUNY Institute for Implementation Science in Population Health and a distinguished professor of epidemiology at CUNY School of Public Health, joins "CBS News Mornings" to explain the response and break down what parents should be aware of as students return to the classroom.
Texas officials announced what is believed to be the first death in the U.S. of a patient diagnosed with monkeypox. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 18,000 cases have been reported nationwide.
U.S. officials said additional monkeypox vaccines could be made available to the public as soon as September. This comes as the director of the CDC said she is cautiously optimistic the outbreak is slowing in the U.S. Dr. Céline Gounder, an editor at large for public health at Kaiser Health News, joined CBS News' Tanya Rivero and Tony Dokoupil to discuss the latest developments on the outbreak.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky says she's cautiously optimistic about what appears to be a downward trend in monkeypox cases across the country. Nearly 17,000 cases have been confirmed in the U.S.
