Monkeypox arrived in the U.S. in May, and it appears as though, despite the last two years of dealing with an epidemic that pretty much shut down the entire country, federal agencies like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are still falling on their faces in response.
In the two months since the first case of monkeypox was discovered, the U.S. has seen at least 800 more people infected, and that's likely an undercount due to lack of testing.
