What is Monkeypox?

Monkeypox is a rare disease caused by infection with the monkeypox virus. Monkeypox virus is in the same family of viruses as smallpox. Monkeypox symptoms are similar to smallpox symptoms, but milder, and monkeypox is rarely fatal. Over 99% of people who get this form of the disease are likely to survive. Visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Frequently Asked Questions page to learn more about monkeypox.

What should I do if I suspect I might have monkeypox?

Isolate from others until you have been assessed by a healthcare professional. Cover any rashes with clothing and wear a mask. Avoid close contact with pets
Faculty/Staff: Contact your Primary Care Physician’s office
Students: Contact the Student Health Center to schedule an appointment. If Monkeypox is suspected, a sample of the rash or lesion with be collected and tested by PCR.
Individuals with Monekypox should isolate until all their rash has resolved, scabs have fallen off, and their skin is fully healed. This may take 2-4 weeks

Avoiding close contact, including sex, with people with symptoms like sores or rashes
Practicing good hand hygiene
Individuals who become infected with Monkeypox should isolate themselves until their symptoms are improving or have gone away completely. The rash should always be well covered until completely healed

What is measles?
Measles is a highly-contagious disease consisting of fever, a rash and tiny white spots inside the mouth. A person’s fever may be 104 degrees. This is a painful disease, lasting several days.

How does it spread?
It is an airborne virus, spread through casual contact with people who have been infected by the virus. It can live in the air for up to two hours.

How do I know if I’m protected?
The Orange County Health Department and the Centers for Disease Control advise that everyone receive two doses of the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine. If you have received two doses of MMR, you are considered immune to measles.

What if I need to be vaccinated?
At this time, Student Health Services is urging members of the Chapman community to visit their local physician, clinic, or pharmacy that provides vaccination services (such as Walgreens) to be vaccinated. Prescriptions are not required for MMR vaccines. Many vaccinations are covered by insurance. To confirm you have submitted your immunization records you can log in here.

What should I do if I feel sick or develop symptoms?
Please contact your local health provider. If you suspect you’ve been exposed or you develop symptoms, please call Student Health Services, (714) 997-6851.

How can Chapman University Student Health Services help?
You can find information regarding our full range of help services on our website.

Where can I get more information?
The Centers for Disease Control provides a website of information concerning measles.

Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)

Recommendation for Routine Vaccination of Persons aged 11 through 18 Years

ACIP recommends routine vaccination of persons with quadrivalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine at age 11 or 12 years, with a booster dose at age 16 years. After a booster dose of meningococcal conjugate vaccine, antibody titers are higher than after the first dose and are expected to protect adolescents through the period of increased risk through age 21 years. For adolescents who receive the first dose at age 13 through 15 years, a one-time booster dose should be administered, preferably at age 16 through 18 years, before the peak in increased risk. Persons who receive their first dose of meningococcal conjugate vaccine at or after age 16 years do not need a booster dose. Routine vaccination of healthy persons who are not at increased risk for exposure to N. meningitides is not recommended after age 21 years.
