Daily News | Feds slash Philly’s monkeypox vaccine supply, forcing a scramble to keep providing doses
the New York Times reported. A spokesperson at The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said she had not heard about a change in Philadelphia’s distribution and was seeking more information. A local spokesperson for the Department of Health and Human Services, which oversees the Administration for Strategic Preparedness and Response, which notified the city of the shipment change, forwarded a request for comment to the department’s national office.
The city was in the process of introducing a plan to administer the smaller doses, and had even found a supply of needles needed for the intradermal injections. Some people with certain skin conditions or who are more prone to scarring would potentially receive permanent blemishes from an intradermal injection, and may still need a subcutaneous injection — meaning they need a full-volume dose.
