STORYLINE:
The health department of New Orleans, a U.S. city, offered free monkeypox vaccines at French Quarter, a local landmark last Saturday.
The free vaccination was held during the "Red Dress Run", a charity event.
People needed to meet certain criteria to be vaccinated. Given the fact that the vaccine supplies were limited, the event was on a first-come, first-served basis.
The organizer introduced that this was the first free monkeypox vaccination event the New Orleans Health Department had organized, and they will host some other events later.
The U.S. federal government declared a public health emergency on August 4 to step up its response to the monkeypox outbreak.
