WHO approves 1st mpox vaccine
The World Health Organization (WHO) has approved the first vaccine against the Mpox virus (formerly known as monkeypox). The vaccine, named MVA-BN, was developed by the Danish biotech company Bavarian Nordic A/S and has been included in the preliminary approval list by the WHO, Azernews reports citing foreign media.
Two Georgian citizens were illegally detained by the Russian occupation forces in the vicinity of the village Mejvriskhevi in the Gori municipality, the State Security Service of Georgia (SSSG) reported on September 17.
In keeping the standard procedure, the SSSG said it activated the “hot line” operated by the EU Monitoring Mission immediately upon receiving the information. The SSSG has also informed the Geneva International Discussions (GID) Co-Chairs and international partners.
The State Security Service said that “all existing mechanisms have been activated” to secure the quickest possible release of the illegally detained individuals, adding that “the responsibility for all destructive acts committed in the occupied territories of Georgia, as well as along the occupation line, lies with the occupying power.”
