More monkeypox vaccine doses expected by late September: U.S. officials
(Sun, August 28, 2022) – The monkeypox outbreak is showing early signs of waning, with some areas of the country — and world — reporting fewer cases on average.
CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky told Yahoo Finance Friday that the agency has noted the decline in some regions, but that overall cases are still rising.
“We have seen in some areas of the world, a flattening of those new cases. We’re starting to see some of that in some jurisdictions here in the United States,” Walensky said. “We’re following this very carefully. We still have had an increase in cases here in the United States.”
