LSHTM d.d. "Mpox: what our experts are saying" https://www.lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/news/2024/mpox-what-our-experts-are-saying Meget kendt stof men godt at høre, at "The teams in DRC are very experienced, and with the right resources, they can handle it. But what’s required is vaccine access.”

Men mener jeg så en artikeln omkring at dem som havde "Gl. koppevaccinationer, som de fik som barn" her var effekten af ny Mpox vaccine skud blivende. Hvor imod effekten forsvandt ved dem der ikke havde været børnevaccineret omod kopper... men er ikke helt sikker i konklusionen - kan ikke lige finde denne undersøgelse

CHALLENGES
There are still some challenges identified like:
Low level of domestic resources from Member States,
Only 3 African countries already approved the utilization of the Mpox vaccines (Nigeria, South Africa and DRC). It is critical for other countries to approve the introduction of the vaccines
-
The tension of the increasing demand of the vaccines by western nation and the monopoly in the manufacturing of vaccines (BN is the only one currently manufacturing this vaccine), puts Africa at a disadvantage in securing the vaccines given the limited market demand by African leaders.
There is a serious risk that Africa will not be consider in the distribution of the vaccines and other medical countermeasures if African leaders don’t come strongly together to make their voice... etc etc
