Congo Gets Its First Mpox Vaccine Shipment To Address Outbreak

The Democratic Republic of Congo has received its first shipment of mpox vaccines, marking a vital step in tackling an outbreak that has affected the country and led the World Health Organisation to declare a global health emergency last month, Al Jazeera reported.
