“Monkeypox can be prevented by vaccines used against smallpox”

Does that mean people who were vaccinated against Smallpox are immune to Monkeypox?

———————————————————————————————————————

Correct. It does mean people vaccinated for Small Pox are also vaccinated from Monkey Pox.

The problem today is, in the 70’s they stopped giving the small pox vaccine unless requested for travel to third world countries or just preference.

All they have to do is dust off the Small Pox vaccine. It eradicated Small Pox and does the same for Monkey Pox.

No new fancy vaccine is needed!
