Summary: The first 10,000 mpox vaccines are set to arrive in Africa next week, two years after being available in over 70 countries. The World Health Organization only initiated the approval process this month, delaying access for low-income nations. Mpox has caused 99,000 cases and 208 deaths globally since 2022, with Congo reporting over 27,000 suspected cases and 1,100 deaths this year.
