The public health authority “currently sees no need to purchase additional doses” of the vaccine against mpox, writes news agency Siren.
This is, among other things, because one does not expect a large-scale spread of infection in Sweden, according to the Ministry of Social Affairs.
The answer came after the EU’s authority for preparedness and response to health crises asked the Public Health Agency if Sweden plans to buy more doses of the Imvanex vaccine during the fall. The vaccine is the only vaccine against mpox approved in the EU.
FHM also announced that they are unable to donate mpox vaccine to other countries.

The right of grazing must be abolished. This is what government investigator Elisabeth Nilsson suggests at a press meeting with Rural Affairs Minister Peter Kullgren.
The right to pasture means that all cattle over six months, except for bulls, must be given the opportunity to graze during the summer.
The investigation’s proposal means that free-ranging cows, i.e. cows that can move freely within a certain area (e.g. a barn), should be able to be exempted from the grazing requirement.
– The competitiveness in milk production is not good enough, says Elisabeth Nilsson.
The investigation is part of the government’s work to strengthen the competitiveness of Swedish agriculture and increase food production.
