1. San Diego County is providing monkeypox🧫vaccinations this week. Appointments can be made at myturn.ca.gov. "As vaccines becomes available, the county will continue its efforts to vaccinate as many of those eligible as possible given the shortage of supply," said Dr. Wilma Wooten, county public health officer.
