The demand for novel medications and vaccinations to treat monkeypox sickness is anticipated to increase as the disease's prevalence rises. Over the projected period, this is also anticipated to fuel the expansion of the global market for monkeypox treatments.For instance, according to information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are estimated to be 31,800 confirmed cases of monkeypox worldwide through August 9, 2022, of which 31,425 are in nations that have never previously reported monkeypox. However there are 375 in nations where monkeypox has previously been documented. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that the United States' vaccine supply is not keeping up with demand.
