(FOX NEWS) – Monkeypox cases in the U.S. are declining as vaccinations increase, the White House said on Wednesday.
Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, the deputy coordinator of the White House national monkeypox response, said more than 460,000 doses of the monkeypox vaccine have been given out. The White House also plans to increase vaccine offerings at upcoming LGBTQ Pride festivals, the Associated Press (AP) reported.
"Our goal is to control this outbreak in the U.S.," Daskalakis said. "We’re seeing strong progress, really, getting shots into arms. Now that supply is less of an issue, we need to make sure we focus on maintaining demand."
