Dr. Ashish Jha, the White House Covid response coordinator, said the administration is looking at how a public health emergency declaration might bolster the U.S. response to the monkeypox outbreak.
Senate Health Committee Chair Patty Murray, in a letter to HHS Secretary Becerra, said she is worried about the U.S. response to the outbreak. Murray said some patients and health-care providers do not have the information and resources they need to test for monkeypox and respond to the outbreak.
Jha said some of those shots have started shipping and will arrive in the U.S. this week and next week. The doses can be delivered to city and state health departments once FDA authorization is complete, Jha said. The U.S. has also ordered another 5 million doses that will be delivered through the middle of 2023, according to HHS.
The children are both in good health and are receiving the antiviral treatment tecovirimat, according to the CDC. Dr. Jennifer McQuiston, a CDC official, told reporters Friday that the health agency is working to make it easier for clinicians to prescribe tecovirimat to patients.
