Monkey pox is progressing in the department. According to our information, less than ten cases are confirmed in the Landes. Since the last census on Wednesday August 17, 118 cases have been recorded in the New Aquitaine region, 2,673 cases throughout France.
“The Landes are average, with a few cases in the Landes, reports Didier Couteaud of the Regional Health Agency. A few dozen people have been vaccinated in the department, and the Mont-de-Marsan hospital pharmacy is gradually benefiting from additional vaccines. We are, despite everything, in a progression of the disease with a few additional cases each week, and we must remain cautious.
The two hospitals in Landes where you can get vaccinated against monkeypox are those of Dax and Mont-de-Marsan.
