Vaccines will be delivered to countries affected by the upsurge of mpox that continues to constitute a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC), just as the first shipment of 11,200 doses arrived in Nigeria on 20 December, reports ITREALMS.
A shipment of 11,200 doses, donated by the United States of America and facilitated by Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, have been shipped to Abuja, Nigeria, with delivery in the country expected today. This follows agreements signed in November by Gavi to facilitate the donation of 305, 000 doses of mpox vaccine to support the global and continental response.
