Atlanta, July 20 (RHC)-- U.S. public health officials are warning of a severe shortage of vaccines needed to combat a growing outbreak of Monkeypox. The Centers for Disease Control has confirmed over 1,800 cases of the viral disease since it was first detected in the United States in May, although a severe shortage of test kits means the true number of cases is likely far higher.
More than 1.5 million U.S. residents qualify for a vaccine, but so far the Biden administration has released just over 130,000 doses from a national stockpile.
Meanwhile, Forbes reports that logistical, bureaucratic and technical errors have slowed the distribution of nearly 7 million additional doses — which could take months to arrive.
