CDC chief insists monkeypox is not out of control in the United States

Daily Mail  

The director of the CDC insisted warnings that the monkeypox is out of control were 'misinformed and off base' on Monday despite cases in the U.S. quadrupling over two weeks. But Dr Scott Gottlieb, a former Food and Drug Administration commissioner, made the warning this weekend as case numbers continued to accelerate Insisting monkeypox could still be contained, Walensky said in a statement emailed to DailyMail.com: ' interview was misinformed and off base. 'But it is possible to significantly decrease the number of cases and contain the current monkeypox outbreak through education and increased testing and access to vaccines — all priorities we've made dramatic progress on.' NYC plans to delay second doses of monkeypox vaccine New York City is set to delay rolling out second doses of the monkeypox vaccine because it has too few doses, health officials say amid warnings the U.S. outbreak is already out of control. Supplies are so low that the city has also shelved plans for second doses — due four weeks after a first jab — in favour of inoculating as many people as possible.
