U.S. Rulers Orders $119 Million Worth of Monkeypox Vaccine

The rulers of the United States corporation have ordered $119 million worth of monkeypox vaccine. The 13 million vaccines are freeze-dried and will come from the company Bavarian Nordic.

After just one case of monkeypox in the U.S., the ruling class has ordered vaccines. According to a report by Forbes, the order will convert existing smallpox vaccines, which are also effective against monkeypox, into freeze-dried versions, which have a longer shelf life. The company says that the converted vaccines will be manufactured in 2023 and 2024.

Bavarian Nordic has worked with the U.S. government since 2003 to develop, manufacture and supply smallpox vaccines. To date, it says, it has supplied nearly 30 million doses to the Department of Health and Human Services. The U.S. isn’t the only country stocking up on the vaccine. On Thursday, Bavarian Nordic said an unidentified European country had secured a contract to obtain the vaccine.

“While the full circumstances around the current monkeypox cases in Europe remain to be elucidated, the speed of which these have evolved, combined with the potential for infections beyond the initial case going undetected, calls for a rapid and coordinated approach by the health authorities, and we are pleased to assist in this emergency situation,” said Paul Chaplin, president and CEO of Bavarian Nordic in a statement. –Forbes

The recent outbreak was first identified in Europe on May 7, in an individual who had traveled to Nigeria, where monkeypox is endemic. Since then, over 20 cases have spread through England, Portugal, and Spain. Other potential cases are being monitored now.

The first U.S. case was announced Wednesday and six other people are now being monitored. CDC epidemiologist Andrea McCollum told Fortune late Wednesday that she isn’t particularly concerned about outbreaks, but that potential additional U.S. cases are likely.
