Despite being at a high risk for contracting monkeypox—a virus that can be spread through sexual or other close physical contact, and was just declared a global health emergency by the World Health Organization—sex workers say they’re struggling to get access to the vaccines that would help keep them safe.

Repeating some of the same mistakes of the disastrously confusing and frustrating vaccine rollout for COVID-19, the launch of monkeypox vaccines in the U.S. so far has been a mess. We’re already facing a shortage of supply; the far-right is using the crisis to fuel hate against queer people; anti-vaxxers are vowing not to protect themselves; and sex workers are being forced to try to stay safe without help from the government bodies that are meant to protect public health.
