Written question WQ93828

We are working closely with the other nations of the UK to ensure the development of a co-ordinated and proportionate vaccination response to the outbreak of clade I mpox across a number of African countries. We established, at pace, a successful Welsh vaccination programme targeting those most at risk in response to the previous outbreak of mpox in the UK in 2022. This past experience provides us with a sound basis on which to take further action, should the clinical and scientific advice suggest that this is necessary.
