First vaccine batch due later this monthThailand's first batch of 1,000 monkeypox vaccine doses is expected to arrive later this month, but the authorities have yet to decide who should get them first, according to the Department of Disease Control (DDC). "It should be provided to bisexual men or people living with low immunity." "We are not sure if [bisexual men] will come to get the vaccine." The department's academic committee will make the final decision on who should get the vaccine first, he said. The vaccine is not necessary for everyone because the side effects can be severe, he said.
