“There is a well-functioning vaccine, the common smallpox vaccine from the past. It works very well against the monkeypox virus. Most people over 50 got it in their youth. The younger generation has not been vaccinated with that, and we can have it on hand for them But for the time being I certainly wouldn’t vaccinate them. There is no reason, there are only a few patients left. We should only vaccinate if the number of cases increases exponentially. But nobody expects that to happen.”
