Well more vaccine in order LOL!

European health authorities discard any further bloc-wide measure against the new mpox variant situation as risk it poses for wider population is still considered 'low'.

There is no need to impose border controls to stave off the risk of mpox, or to initiate bloc-wide inoculation against the virus, the Health Security Committee of the European Commission concluded yesterday (19 August) following a meeting with the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), the European Medicine Agency (EMA).

A European Commission spokesperson told Euronews that the Health Security Committee (HSC) agreed that for now, there is no need to update the Opinion on Mpox vaccination from 2022, “nor should this be considered a public health emergency in Europe as things stand.”

Mpox is 'not the new COVID' – WHO

The World Health Organization (WHO) insisted on Tuesday that mpox, the viral infection currently spreading in central Africa, "is not the new COVID."

Hans Kluge, WHO regional director for Europe, told a UN media briefing that global health authorities already understand a great deal about mpox and know how to control its spread, despite having declared it a "public health emergency of international concern" (PHEIC) last week.

"We already know a lot about clade 2," said Kluge, referring to the mpox variant responsible for a 2022 epidemic. "Now," he added, "we need to learn more about clade 1" – the new, more contagious variant.

"We can and must tackle mpox together," he said.

"Will we choose to put the systems in place to control and eliminate mpox globally? Or we will enter another cycle of panic and neglect? How we respond now and in the years to come will prove a critical test for Europe and the world."

Ang: I thought I had an account under "Ang" (I think since 2015) but then when this forum switched to ProBoards I lost access. :( Been awhile. So finally made a new account. What happened? However, maybe it was another Christian forum that I lost the url to. Jun 24, 2023 10:20:10 GMT -5 *
