Good morning,
If you’re concerned clothing or bedding may be Monkeypox virus-contaminated, the health department is recommending laundering with hot water, highest temp and regular detergent is fine.
New York health has detailed instructions, as well, for both machine-washable and non-machine-washable laundry:
