2:24 pm
sore throat coughs, went through my sheets at night. and then, you know, the telltale skin lesions which i had from the get go, but more of them appeared around me infection. and towards the end, i counted more than $25.00 all over my body and they just appeared everywhere. women and children in the us have clot, monkey pox, but the us centers for disease control says 99 percent of the cases are seen among gay and bisexual men. the disease is spread by close skin, the skin body, contact muggy box vaccine, and testing kits are in short supply frustrating health experts. i think we kind of stumbled out of the blocks in a few ways, one of which is testing. i don't think there was enough testing available early enough. and then the 2nd thing is with the vaccines, we have vaccines available. they're approved, we've had them purchased, they are in a national stockpile and it's been getting them out of the stockpile. it's been really challenging and that's currently where the bottleneck is right now. the white house says the government has distributed 300000 doses of monkey pox vaccine

severity and the urgency of responding to this crisis. and they developed a series of what i would call a it's epidemiological dashboard. and the experts can the reasonably oh, look at the data over the past month and think, well there are some indicators that to point to a rather i think that it's not as severe as one would think. however, the critical weakness of the data is that is often lags reality, that the virus may be ahead of the data. so it's in my judgement that dr. caterers is airing on the side of taking pro action to mobilize governments and mobilize civil society. it's not only a medical response, it's a political response, and that is what is needed at all countries at all community levels in order to
2:27 pm
