The U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention released details Monday on how a Florida infant contracted monkeypox and struggled with full body lesions.
The child in Brevard County, diagnosed in August, is the youngest in the state to have the virus, although 27 confirmed cases of monkeypox in pediatric patients younger than 15 now have been reported in the United States during the 2022 outbreak.
The child has since made a full recovery.
