monkeypox

We discuss the recent upsurge in COVID-19 cases, plus the appearance of monkeypox with a couple of epidemiologists. We revisit possible dangers swimmers face on Lake Michigan. Then we talk about the "Pride is in the Faire” gathering in Mid-Michigan. And we listen in on a conversation with GOP gubernatorial candidate, Ryan Kelley.

Public health experts know what it takes to control a disease outbreak: access to testing and vaccines. But in the last two months of the monkeypox outbreak, the response has not met the need.

The first probable case of monkeypox in Michigan was identified Wednesday in an Oakland County patient.
