Monkey acne epidemic spread experts, worrying about the rich country to grab vaccine repeat

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, July 31. With the spread of monkey acne epidemic in Europe and the United States, some countries have begun to purchase a large number of monkey acne vaccines. Public health people warn that if the vaccine distribution during the new crown epidemic is repeated in the epidemic of the monkey acne, it will not only allow millions of Africans to be used to play, but also exacerbate the risk of spreading the risk of monkey acne epidemic to ordinary people.

Monkey acne was previously popular in western and central Africa, but recently spread in non -acne popular countries. According to the Associated Press, since May, nearly 80 countries and regions have reported a total of more than 21,000 cases of people infected with acne (hereinafter referred to as monkey acne), of which about 75 suspected monkey acne death cases were located in Africa.

According to the Associated Press, the popular monkey acne virus in Africa is even more fatal. Outside of Africa, Brazil and Spain first reported the death cases to associate monkey acne on the 29th.

In the view of Perigma Tangi, the University of Emeri University, African countries have dealt with the epidemic of monkey acne for decades, but they are "reduced to footnotes" when discussing global countermeasures. After ordering millions of monkey acne vaccines, some wealthy countries in the West did not announce their plans to share vaccines with Africa. "The errors we saw during the new crown epidemic are repeating," he said.

The Associated Press quoted a number of epidemiologists, differently from the new crown epidemic, and responding to monkey acne epidemic does not require large -scale vaccines. Carrying out vaccine injections and supplemented by other measures can curb the spread of monkey acne epidemic.

At present, Danish pharmaceuticals Bavaria Nordic companies can produce monkey acne vaccines. According to the Associated Press, this company can produce about 30 million doses of acne vaccines this year, with a spot of about 16 million doses. The United States is currently the country with the largest number of acne vaccines. It has ordered 13 million doses of acne vaccine to Bavarian Nordic Corporation, of which 1.4 million doses have been delivered.

The Bavarian Nordic Corporation requested the United States in May to dispel about 215,000 doses of acne vaccines delivered in the United States, "to assist this company to deal with the international request received." In this regard, the United States only agrees to delay the delivery time.

Agent African Directors Acting Director Aihamed Ogwell Oma said on the 28th that Africa was thrown behind in the distribution of monkey acne vaccines. He called for preferential providing monkey acne vaccines to Africa. "If we are not safe, it will not be safe elsewhere in the world," he said.

Reuters reported by the World Health Organization as a source report that 98%of the existing monkey acne patients outside Africa were male actors. Experts are worried that if the epidemic of the monkey acne spreads to the general population, or "rooting" in a non -traditional pop area, it will exacerbate the necessary degree of monkey acne vaccine.

"The longer the monkey acne virus spreads, the more likely it will spread to the new animal host or transmitted to ordinary people." Said Salmila Sheyie, a non -governmental organization, said, "That's what, in that case," The demand for monkey acne vaccine will change essentially. "(Liu Xiuling)
