The World Health Organization urged manufacturers to ramp up production of mpox vaccines to rein in the spread of a more dangerous strain of the virus.
The WHO on Wednesday declared the mpox surge a public health emergency of international concern - its highest alert level - with Clade 1b cases soaring in the Democratic Republic of Congo and spreading beyond its borders.
"We do need the manufacturers to really scale up so that we've got access to many, many more vaccines," WHO spokeswoman Margaret Harris told reporters.
