Biden on Monkeypox: Outbreak should concern 'everybody,' as health experts are baffled

President Joe Biden said Sunday the new monkeypox outbreak should concern "everybody," as it continues to baffle medical officials around the world.

"Everybody should be concerned about [it]," Biden said in South Korea, while speaking with a group of reporters before he boarded Air Force One for Japan, Reuters reported.

The president’s remarks come as numerous outbreaks of monkeypox were reported in Africa, followed by other reported cases in Europe and the U.S.

"We’re working on it, hard to figure out what we do," added Biden.
