Yes, but my point was more along the lines that many in the US have ALREADY been vaccinated, that we have an existing vaccine and there is no need for a new vaccine .... or a panic.
Everyone who served in the US military has had a Smallpox vaccine. Lots of members of Congress who were in office after the anthrax attacks following 9/11 were also vaccinated. Possibly some members of the federal bureaucracy have also been vaccinated. The vast majority of the US public have not been. Also practically no one under the age of 18 has been vaccinated, and children are the group most at risk of death or serious health effects.
Furthermore the Smallpox vaccine stocks we do have are controlled by the Pentagon. As a civilian, I have no right to demand one for myself or family members. What's needed is some loosening of the control the US military and the President of the United states has over civilian access. The WHO did not want civilian populations vaccinated against Smallpox after they officially declared Smallpox to be eradicated in the wild. They did not want Smallpox to potentially be developed into a bioweapon.
Unfortunately the Soviet Union did actually develop Smallpox as a bioweapon and had many civilians continue to be vaccinated. Fortunately the US has built up a strategic stockpile of Smallpox vaccines with enough doses for everyone living in the US just in case Smallpox were released as a bioweapon.
The reaction to the current cases of Monkeypox outside of Africa should be to allow the stocks of the MVA-BN Smallpox vaccines to be made available for ring vaccination around the people who may have been near the people diagnosed with Monkeypox or their contacts.
