FDA approves more monkeypox vaccines

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved additional national approval for doses of smallpox and monkeypox vaccine manufactured at pharmaceutical company Bavarian Nordic’s facility in Denmark.

The FDA said after completing an inspection process for that plant earlier this month, it concluded that a Bavarian Scandinavian vaccine called Jynneos met quality standards.

The US regulator added that it had previously facilitated the transport of these doses from the Danish plant to the US so that they would be ready for distribution as soon as it gave permission.

There are two licensed monkeypox vaccines in the US, Jynneos and Acam2000, but stocks of the first vaccine in the country are still quite limited.
