As monkeypox cases spiral, U.S. will stretch supply of vaccine by giving smaller doses

LA Times  

As monkeypox cases continue to climb among high-risk people, federal officials on Tuesday announced that they will stretch limited vaccine supplies by giving just one-fifth the current dosage. “The monkeypox virus has continued to spread at a rate that has made it clear our current vaccine supply will not meet the current demand,” Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Dr. Robert Califf said. Gavin Newsom this month declared a state of emergency over the spread of the virus to “bolster the state’s vaccination efforts.” The White House has likewise declared the disease a public health emergency. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency in California over the spread of the monkeypox virus in order to “bolster the state’s vaccination efforts.” The FDA based its dosing decision on data from a 2015 clinical study that found that individuals who received the vaccine intradermally had a similar immune response to those who got it subcutaneously. The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health “asks that all providers prioritize administering first doses of Jynneos vaccine to eligible immunocompetent persons to protect as many at-risk people as possible.” Immunocompetent people are those without weakened immune systems, who can wait for a second dose, as opposed to those who are immunocompromised, who should get their second dose on time if possible.
