In Quebec, authorities have begun offering monkeypox vaccines to people who are at high risk of infection, such as those who have been in direct contact with those who have already contracted the virus. This disease has been circulating in Africa since 1980, but in recent months outbreaks have been reported in North American and European countries, although none of the cases have been fatal.
