A limited number of monkeypox vaccines will be available for vulnerable groups as soon as next week, with the federal government to announce it has secured supplies of new third-generation vaccines amid criticism it was too slow to act.
Barlow recently returned from the United States and almost certainly contracted monkeypox from a sexual partner in Provincetown, Massachusetts, who later tested positive. “It’s almost like we’re not even looking overseas to understand what we should be expecting,” says Jack Barlow.On Wednesday, federal Health Minister Mark Butler flagged an imminent announcement about the “hotly contested” supply of vaccines. The minister’s office told the“We’ve secured supplies of new third-generation vaccines and will be announcing the details tomorrow.” Monkeypox is also on the agenda for Thursday’s national cabinet meeting.
“It’s almost like we’re not even looking overseas to understand what we should be expecting,” he said. “For many gay and bisexual men and other men who have sex with men, we are now in that situation where a vaccine that has existed for a while just hasn’t been purchased. I would have launched the same criticism at a Liberal government.”
