Monkeypox Summit in the Bronx


BRONX - Borough President Gibson will join Destination Tomorrow, the Third Avenue BID, the Bronx Chamber of Commerce, the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, the NYC Office of Nightlife, and LGBTQIA+ Business Owners for a night of outreach along the Third Avenue Business Improvement District corridor in the Hub. 



As of September 15, Black and Hispanic New Yorkers still account for the majority of Monkeypox cases across the city, highlighting racial health disparities that persist in communities of color.


Bronx leaders will join with credible messengers to disseminate information to residents regarding Monkeypox prevention, testing and vaccines along the South Bronx corridor and to local businesses in an effort to increase Monkeypox vaccinations and eliminate stigma and misinformation around this public health crisis. 


The event will take place at 5 pm on Wednesday, September 21 at Roberto Clemente Plaza (530 Willis Avenue, Bronx, NY).
