HHS Doubles Monkeypox Vaccine Order, Increases Testing Capacity

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services doubled its order of Bavarian Nordic’s JYNNEOS monkeypox vaccine by another 2.5 million doses Friday, the agency announced.

“We continue to do everything we can to ramp up supply of vaccines and distribute them to those in need as quickly and equitably as possible,” HHS Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response Dawn O’Connell said in a press release announcing the additional order. “Our strategy is to secure additional doses for the near-term while also making sure we have a steady supply in the weeks and months to come.”
