Eighty-one deaths from mpox were reported in Africa in the past week, bringing the total cases and deaths to 22,863 and 622, respectively, Dr. Jean Kaseya, head of the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told an online briefing.
About 380,000 doses of mpox vaccines have been promised by Western partners such as the European Union and the United States, he said. That's less than 15% of the doses authorities have said are needed to end the mpox outbreaks in Congo, the epicenter of the ongoing global emergency.
