Gay and bisexual men in the US are hitting walls to find a monkeypox vaccine because of limited supplies, with some activists criticizing the government as being too slow to increase its vaccine stockpiles.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, while the US awaits about 800,000 vaccine doses in Denmark, the number of confirmed and suspected domestic cases of monkeypox now top 1,000. Globally, cases have neared 11,000 since the outbreak began in early May. Cases are concentrated in men who have sex with men.
