The HHS department, said the strategy will protect and vaccinate those people, who are at-risk of contracting Monkeypox and will prioritize vaccines for areas with high numbers of Monkeypox cases and will also provide guidance to local, tribal, territorial and state health officials to aide their planning and response efforts.
The HHS is going to make around 300,000 doses of Monkeypox vaccine available within weeks, including 56,000 doses available immediately, and up to 1.6 million doses of Monkeypox vaccine should be made available in the United States in 2022. The Monkeypox vaccine will be given in two doses 28 days apart.
