So that’s why it’s a non-issue

 Monkeypox is closely related to smallpox. Smallpox vaccines are effective at preventing Monkey Pox pre-exposure.

 

Routine Smallpox vaccination for all american children ended in 1971.

 

Most people in the US are not vaccinated for small pox, but the vaccines are available for those who believe they may be at risk to exposure in the future.

 

Chicken pox and shingles are not closely related to Monkey Pox. Chicken pox and shingles vaccines are not effective against Monkey Pox.
