The other states where the caseload is in three digits are Florida (273), Georgia (268) and Texas (220), as well as the District Of Columbia (139).
Health experts have opined that given the testing bottlenecks in the US, monkeypox cases are likely to be undercounted.

As of Tuesday, the global caseload stands at 18,095.
