The United Nations Children’s Fund has issued an emergency tender to secure mpox vaccines for crisis-hit countries in collaboration with the Gavi vaccine alliance, Africa CDC and the World Health Organization, the organizations said in a joint statement on Saturday.
Under the tender, UNICEF will set up conditional supply agreements with vaccine manufacturers, the statement said. The collaboration - which would also include working with the Vaccine Alliance and the Pan American Health Organization as well as with Gavi, the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and WHO - would facilitate donations of vaccines from existing stockpiles in high-income countries.
The agency is reviewing applications for emergency licences for two vaccines made by Bavarian Nordic and Japan’s KM Biologics.
