The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention earlier this month issued a list of safe activities for sexually active patients to engage in. CDC mentioned in the guidelines list that those who are infected with the monkeypox virus should avoid intimate contact and sex because the monkeypox virus could be spread in close contact. Among the recommendations, are avoiding kissing and “having sex with your clothes on or covering areas where rash or sores are present.”
According to the CDC, "Monkeypox is rare and does not spread easily between people without close contact. The threat of monkeypox to the general US population remains LOW." The World Health Organization began investigating if monkeypox could be sexually transmitted after the virus was detected in a patient’s semen.
