2020 CoronaVirus Outbreak - That began in Wuhan, China and is spreading

[Up All Night]

BBC News on PBS tonight: "Monkeypox is more likely to be transmitted in the gay community."

But this fact is being downplayed in the CDC's description of Transmission. Here's their PC statement:

"Transmission of monkeypox virus occurs when a person comes into contact with the virus from an animal, human, or materials contaminated with the virus. The virus enters the body through broken skin (even if not visible), respiratory tract, or the mucous membranes (eyes, nose, or mouth). Animal-to-human transmission may occur by bite or scratch, bush meat preparation, direct contact with body fluids or lesion material, or indirect contact with lesion material, such as through contaminated bedding. Human-to-human transmission is thought to occur primarily through large respiratory droplets. Respiratory droplets generally cannot travel more than a few feet, so prolonged face-to-face contact is required. Other human-to-human methods of transmission include direct contact with body fluids or lesion material, and indirect contact with lesion material, such as through contaminated clothing or linens."

Did you skip the date that was last reviewed on purpose?
Page last reviewed: July 16, 2021.

It was right there under the part you decided to quote.
Can't miss it at all.

How is a general overview of transmission a pc statement?
If it is currently being spread in the gay community does that mean that is always has it would be spread?
Did you expect them to anticipate this in July of 2021?
At least put a little effort into your fake outrage, sport.

HOPEFULLY there will be a vaccine for these new, pox!
ME SCARED!

Or you could just pay for those farm fresh eggs instead of trading your ass for them.

Yes, I admit, I missed the last reviewed date. I'm no expert on hanging out at the CDC website!!

On further digging, I found this:

and this:

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/05/23/monkeypox-outbreak-is-primarily-spreading-through-sex-who-officials-say.html

And this:

On Monday, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control Director Andrea Ammon said “the likelihood of further spread of the virus through close contact, for example during sexual activities among persons with multiple sexual partners, is considered to be high.”

Madrid’s senior health official said Monday that the Spanish capital had 30 confirmed cases. Enrique Ruiz Escudero said authorities are investigating possible links between a recent Gay Pride event in the Canary Islands, which drew some 80,000 people, and cases at a Madrid sauna.

See what a little actual effort got you?
They did not downplay it at all.
They actually had it 2 days before you saw that BBC thing.

Straight from the info that was updated 2 days ago -

It’s not clear how people in those clusters were exposed to monkeypox but cases include people who self-identify as men who have sex with men.

My ass is so pristine, I lay my own eggs!   BAKERS DOZEN, BART!   whatever that part means

Will horse paste be effective for the dreaded monkeypox scourge and, if so, which flavor?  Asking for a rocket man who has a hang-up with gravity.  Thank you, and I will take my answer off the air.

Smallpox vaccinations offer some degree of protection against monkeypox unless your immune system has been compromised by the mRNA vaccine.

Go with apple. Steer clear of banana.

Thank you for your reply.  I am anxiously awaiting Mr. KSM’s response and, of course Mr. Bart’s, valued assessment.

The problem with 'horse paste' is that it's hard to come by. Working the paste dispensers can be.. iffy.  Not my cup o' tea. @ItsOver

Have gorilla masks been found to be effective in spread prevention?

I can’t speak for gorilla masks, but I understand Gorilla glue can be quite effective, if you use it to carefully seal all your body orifices.  Unfortunately, it does lead to some less than desirable side effects.
