COVID-19 “vaccine” adverse events:

United States:

Public health authorities determine whether there is an mpox outbreak; a single case may be considered an mpox outbreak at the discretion of public health authorities.
Other circumstances in which a public health response may be indicated include ongoing risk of introduction of mpox into a community due to disease activity in another geographic area.

VACCINES

JYNNEOS is a third-generation vaccine based on a live, attenuated orthopoxvirus, Modified Vaccinia Ankara (MVA). MVA is a live virus that does not replicate efficiently in humans. JYNNEOS is known internationally as Imvamune^® or Imvanex^®; it is manufactured by Bavarian Nordic. It is fully licensed in the U.S. for subcutaneous administration in individuals 18 years of age and older. As of April 1, 2024, JYNNEOS is commercially available in the U.S.

In addition, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) in August 2022 to allow JYNNEOS vaccine to be used:

By intradermal injection for prevention of mpox disease in individuals 18 years of age and older determined to be at high risk for mpox, and
By subcutaneous injection for prevention of mpox disease in individuals younger than 18 years of age determined to be at high risk for mpox.

ACAM2000 is a second-generation vaccine that contains a live vaccinia virus that replicates efficiently in humans. It is manufactured by Emergent Bio Solutions and is indicated for the prevention of smallpox. It has been made available for use against mpox in the current outbreak under an Expanded Access Investigational New Drug (EA-IND) protocol, which requires informed consent along with completing additional forms. Available evidence supporting the use of smallpox vaccine for mpox prevention is derived from experience with Dryvax^®, the vaccine used during smallpox eradication. Dryvax was a first-generation smallpox vaccine manufactured by Wyeth Laboratories. Routine use of this vaccine ended in the United States in 1972, and smallpox was declared eradicated globally in 1980 by the World Health Assembly. The license for Dryvax was withdrawn in 2008 and no supplies of this vaccine remain. Although the United States has a large supply of ACAM2000, this vaccine has more side effects and contraindications than JYNNEOS
