The World Health Organization has declared the Monkeypox outbreak a global health emergency. There have been more than 16,000 cases in 75 countries and five deaths in Africa in the current outbreak. While people in high risk groups are able to get vaccinations overseas, they are yet to be offered that protection in Australia.
