Colorado to receive more monkeypox vaccine, but the supply remains tight by megwingerter
, with more than half reported since the start of August. The true number is almost certainly higher, since testing was particularly difficult to find in May and June, and people with milder cases may not seek medical attention for a rash.
The federal Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response, which is handling distribution of the Jynneos vaccine, said Colorado will be. The vaccine was approved for smallpox, but may be effective in preventing monkeypox. That would only vaccinate a little over 9,000 people because the vaccine was approved based on a two-shot protocol. Colorado and other jurisdictions haveAs of last week, Colorado had ordered 11,285 doses, or about 61% of its allocation, and received 9,665. No state has been able to order more than 68% of its allocation. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced Monday that the remaining doses would be available to order immediately.
So far, the vaccine is available only to men who know they were exposed, have multiple male partners, or had an anonymous partner in the past two weeks. Federal officials have estimated that about 1.5 million people nationwide could be at high risk, requiring 3 million vaccine doses.
