Mpox
Around a third of mpox vaccines donated by Japan to the Democratic Republic of Congo are being wasted due to storage issues after preparation for use. Congo's mpox response head highlighted the problem amid efforts to combat the clade Ib strain that triggered a global health emergency last year. Japan has provided 3 million doses of its LC16 vaccine.

The World Health Organization has declared that the mpox outbreak in Africa is no longer a global health emergency. The decision follows a decline in cases and improved control measures. Mpox remains endemic in parts of Africa, with symptoms including fever and lesions.
