Monkeypox (MPX) Information

Monkeypox (MPX) is a rare disease caused by infection with the monkeypox virus. Monkeypox virus is part of the same family of viruses as variola virus, the virus that causes smallpox.

Monkeypox symptoms are similar to smallpox symptoms, but milder, and monkeypox is rarely fatal. Monkeypox is not related to chickenpox. Click here for detailed information regarding symptoms, spread, and prevention.  

Vaccination against monkeypox is available at USF Health for high risk populations and people who have been exposed to monkeypox. If you feel you qualify stop by the Vaccine Clinic at Morsani during opening hours Monday – Friday 8AM – 4PM, or contact your healthcare provider for more information. 

USF Health is currently offering COVID-19 (including third shot and boosters) vaccines to patients, employees and individuals in the community who are age 6 months or older.

Our priority is to keep you healthy and safe.

As State restrictions on hospitals and clinics are lifted, you now have more options for seeing our physicians and providers in-person. To help protect both you and our clinical teams, USF Health has implemented safety measures for when you visit our clinical facilities. 

These measures will make your appointment seem different than previous visits, but rest assured they are meant as added precautions for keeping everyone safe during the COVID-19 pandemic.

We are taking these vital precautions to protect our patients and our frontline staff and closely monitor the official health guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Florida Department of Health. 

Please review the details below prior to your appointment to help you have a better and safe patient experience at your next visit.

PPE, Masks, and Safety Measures

Our health care providers and staff will continue to follow the appropriate measures to keep our patients safe by wearing PPE masks and gloves, as well as frequently washing their hands. We require all patients to wear a facial covering or mask while in our facilities and practice social distancing measures. We also have alcohol-based hand sanitizers available in all of the reception, waiting, and patient areas. Routine cleaning and disinfection protocols take place in patient areas.   

Parking for your in-person appointment

• Valet parking is available at the USF Health Morsani Center for Advanced Healthcare.
• Valet parking is available at the USF Health South Tampa Center for Advanced Healthcare for all visitors for $5, including those with disability permits. Alternatively, visitors with a disability permit who do not wish to use valet may self-park in the garage free of charge and use the courtesy shuttle service from the garage to their destination, round trip. We may make exceptions and park visitors curbside without charge in special circumstances such as a visitor whose disability prevents them from being able to park in the garage (vehicles with hand controls which cannot be valeted) or from being able to use the courtesy shuttle.

In addition, we have also made updates to our billing policies during this time and continue to offer financial assistance to those with financial hardships.
