Approaches to Next-Generation Capripoxvirus and Monkeypox Virus Vaccines [PDF]
Globally, there are two major poxvirus outbreaks: mpox, caused by the monkeypox virus, and lumpy skin disease, caused by the lumpy skin disease virus. While vaccines for both diseases exist, there is a need for improved vaccines.
