Maryland officials said Tuesday that they continue to press federal sources for limited doses of the monkeypox vaccine and keep close tabs on the rising cases in the state, but with just over 2% of the country’s total infections, Gov. Larry Hogan has not followed other states in declaring it a health emergency.
