The World Health Organization (W.H.O.) has just approved a vaccine called Jynneos to be used against mpox, a disease that has been spreading in Africa.
Jynneos has already been approved in countries like Europe and the United States, but this is the first time it's been approved for use in Africa.
The W.H.O.'s approval means that countries in Africa can now get this vaccine, which is important because mpox is a serious disease.
This decision will help protect people in Africa from mpox and hopefully slow down the spread of the disease.
