Ask the expert: A White House Q&A on monkeypox

Monkeypox is the latest infectious disease outbreak for health journalists to cover and explain to the public.
In early August, President Biden declared monkeypox a public health emergency and named Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, CDC director of HIV/AIDS prevention, as deputy coordinator of the administration’s effort to respond to the outbreak. Daskalakis will take questions for 30 minutes during this webcast, so bring your questions about transmission, risk, health equity and how not to perpetuate stigma in your coverage.
