Countries are struggling, vaccines are scarce and mpox (monkeypox) is at risk of becoming endemic in many countries.
In the final episode of this documentary, we find out what actions need to be taken at a global scale to get the outbreak under control.
This virus became endemic in some countries after we first saw it in the 1970s, and we have not done much about it. That bears repeating, for over 50 years - people have been struggling with it, in Central and Eastern Africa - and even now, when it’s spreading around the world - the action is limited.
The most frustrating thing for people with experience and experts is we have the tools to fix this. But only if we work worldwide to prevent future pandemics, if governments step up, and if we change our attitudes to queer sex.
Can we end the outbreak and prevent future ones - let's work out What The Pox? is going on.
