Health Department Investigating Monkeypox Case In Missouri

The Department says the virus appears to have been transmitted by the person’s pet prairie dog, which was bought from a pet store in Illinois. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta are being asked to confirm lab tests that show the case is “highly suggestive” of monkeypox.
