Monkeypox Q&A: Updates on the virus, vaccine, and treatment red tape

The US response to the monkeypox outbreak continues to hit snags, as access to vaccines, ability to find treatments, and even getting appropriate care in the doctor's office can be anything but a sure thing. So where are we in the timeline of this outbreak? Have we learned anything from the coronavirus pandemic that should have helped us respond to Monkeypox? And why is there still so much red tape around TPOXX, a treatment we know works? We asked these questions and a lot more to Dr. Michael LeVasseur, Assistant Professor of Epidemiology & Biostatistics at Drexel University's Dornsife School of Public Health.
