Painting an entire continent or country in red, when they are very, very isolated cases, a fraction of percentages in even fewer isolated areas.
But sure, if moneypox is outbroken in Yellowstone nation park, the desolate Outback, the uninhabitable salt flats and arctic circle, and smack dab in Area 51, I guess we should have some concern™.
It's psychological warfare. They know what they're doing.

I dont get it? Why is the name MonkePox discriminatory or stigmatizing? What does the word Monkey have to do with Africa?Monkeypox isn't a thing anymore.

Because only racists find the most racist reading of anything. Even though South America has the most monkey species in the world.

Oh so some brain artists at WHO mean to say that MonkeyPox are possibly racist towards African people?
I am so tired of this shit.

We in Portugal have 20 cases, that is it.
The same people who think Africa is a country.
From an outsider perspective. Americans are so dramatic, lacking in knowledge but quick to jump at meaningless causes, meanwhile their society/country is on chaos, as usual.
Don't they realize that their media wants them to focus on stupid things instead of the real problems?
Anyway...

Renaming monkeypox is one of the dumbest ideas ever. I swear these idiots running shit do more self harm with every virus outbreak, they can’t get out of their own way.
There is a stigma attached to pox. Anyone who’s seen or had smallpox or chickenpox wants no part of anything named pox. A good way to lessen the public giving a shit about something they’re now recommending masks for in some areas is to give it some new stupid name in the name if wokeness.
Shit, if they named COVID something pox, maybe more people would’ve gotten vaccinated instead of it being called corona like it’s a fucking beer or call a variant delta like a fucking airline.
New rule: any serious virus you don’t want to spread, stick pox at the end of it and people will take it seriously.

May-Sept are the prime Africa safari tourism months so that's why you're seeing it spread outside Africa now.
edit: also, there are two strains now, and it is airborne. There's a period between 5 to 7 days where it's asymptomatic but transmittable. Spreading from kids their carers. This is different from the 2022 version. There are vaccines but stocks are low.

Those born during the early 70s are probably already vaccinated in many civilized countries.

Had a meningococcal infection and rogue cell imbalance in my spinal fluid when I had Leukaemia as a kid, quite possibly the most horrendous headache I've ever had. Was getting lumbar punctures every week and they had to bring in an exotic disease specialists as they didn't even recognise half the stuff they were finding in there.

I am waiting to see on Facebook the "Mpox the Next Covid" and how the "elite/hidden world government" will make everyone get a vax so they can kill everyone who takes it.
I mean, wasn't COVID going to kill us? (I am still waiting for everyone with Covid vax to drop like flies). Now the Mpox will, how much of a goal do they want to move?

Looking at those hairstyles, if any of these women tried to do a walk like that now, they'd be doing it with a zimmer frame.
