More than 35,000 cases of Monkeypox continue to rise globally across 92 countries, and territories, the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) reported.
At the same time as the outbreak of "monkey pox" spread throughout the world, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of this disease a global emergency. Declaring a global emergency means that the monkey pox outbreak is an "extraordinary event" that could spread to more countries and requires a coordinated global response.
The European Commission on Tuesday said it had signed a deal with Danish biotech firm Bavarian Nordic (BAVA.CO) for the delivery of around 110,000 doses of monkeypox vaccine.
