\nIn a new monkeypox advocacy ad in the Los Angeles Times (Sunday, August 21), AHF faults L.A. County Public Health for taking a top-down approach, dictating to the community rather than enlisting those groups as partners<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

\nStating that public health is the most basic responsibility of government, AHF\u2019s ad also admonishes county officials to \u201cPut the \u2018Public\u2019 Back in Public Health\u201d<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AHF<\/a> will run another full-page, full-color advocacy ad on monkeypox targeting Los Angeles County Public Health officials over their response to the ongoing outbreak, which has overwhelmingly affected gay men, men who have sex with men and transgender individuals.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nThe ad, headlined \u201cL.A. Needs New Leadership on Monkeypox, HIV and STDs\u201d<\/a>, criticizes L.A. County officials over their “top-down approach, which dictates to the community rather than enlisting their support, and sets community groups against one another.\u201d <\/i>The ad reminds readers that public health is the most basic responsibility of government yet points out that the \u201cLA County Department of Public Health treats the trusted representatives of the community with contempt.\u201d<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

\nThis ad follows two previous monkeypox ads that AHF ran in prior editions of the Los Angeles Times. The first ad, headlined \u201cLA County Fails Gay Men AGAIN\u201d<\/a> (Sunday, July 31, 2022), reminded readers how L.A. County officials, who failed gay men on its AIDS response at the start of that epidemic over 40 years ago, are sadly once again not taking enough appropriate steps on monkeypox to ensure the public\u2019s safety.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe second ad, headlined \u201cMonkeypox: LA County Alert\u201d<\/a> (Sunday, August 7, 2022), criticized L.A. County officials over their disjointed and disorganized response to the outbreak, cases of which first started appearing outside of Africa in Western Europe and the United States beginning in mid-May. It also decried the county\u2019s lack of effective cooperation with community partners, who have the ground level networks, outreach and programs already in place to aid the county in mounting a more effective response providing education, prevention, testing and vaccinations, particularly given the extremely limited supply of vaccine doses.\n<\/p>\n

\nAccording to LA County Public Health<\/a>, as of August 19, 2022, there are 1,105 confirmed monkeypox cases in the county (including case counts from Pasadena and Long Beach, which each have their own public health departments) with 98% found among males and 98% of those cases within the LGBTQ+ community.\n<\/p>\n

\nAHF\u2019s latest LA Times ad closes with a powerful admonishment to the County: \u201cPut the public back in public health.\u201d<\/i>\n<\/p>\n
