Congo received its first 100,000 mpox vaccine doses-now it just needs 2.9 million more to end the outbreak
Briefly

The delivery of 100,000 doses of the MVA-BN vaccine marks a critical step in the fight against mpox in Congo, amid a declared global emergency.
Despite the initial delivery, the vaccination drive's start date is still unclear, highlighting ongoing challenges in public health response to the outbreak.
Authorities have mentioned a need for approximately 3 million doses to effectively control the mpox outbreaks, with current commitments only meeting about 15% of that demand.
For years mpox spread undetected in Africa, emphasizing the importance of vigilant monitoring and rapid response to emerging health threats like the current outbreak.
