It's a gay *** disease. I'm not too worried about it now.

Historically, people in America transmitted smallpox through objects like blankets as well as direct contact. It wouldn't be that much of a stretch to believe that monkeypox behaves like its more infamous cousin when it comes to transmission, but thankfully not in lethality or disfigurement.

Hand Sanitizer, it's still a thing.

you sure about that?

[HibikiR]

you sure about that?

If you mean the myth about biological warfare against Native Americans, then no.

If you mean smallpox and fomites in general then I refer you to this article: https://academic.oup.com/cid/article...465225#6997186

Basically, it sucked to be the person that had to handle the clothes or bedding of an infected patient in a hospital or something.

You should review your claim and the link you posted.......details are important unless you are NPR, CNN etc
"studies support the finding that respiratory droplet spread is the prime route of transmission"

the first known case of hiv in america was a minor, so i assume it would be transmitted the same way.



most recent reports says it has to be transmitted sexually.

My wife is friends with a gay dude at work, that likes to gross her out with descriptions of his many conquests (oftentimes multiple in the same day).

He recently indicated a wave of fear amongst the community from the Schlong covid. He is self isolating in abstinence, currently.

He also said that there is an aids blocking drug he calls "prep", That him and his promiscuous partners take regularly as a prophylactic.

He said that ALL the guys he knows who have contracted the cockpox, are regular users of this drug. He also thinks the two are connected somehow....

Just something I found interesting.

So, a “real” fear here of Monkeypox?
I worry about it as much as COVID, I mean as little as COVID.

Schools planning any overabundance of caution measures yet?

[2shotjoe]

no, not gay.

don't let teacher have sex with students?

I never said it was the exclusive means or even the primary means. The article proves that fomites, along with respiratory droplets, were means that worked for smallpox. If monkeypox shares the same features as smallpox when it comes to transmission then the myopic view that this is a gay disease leaves people vulnerable to misinformation and that makes other people here "CNN".

It's a sexually transmitted disease........that predominately affects gay people. No one cares about your lifestyle choices so you don't have to try and deflect.
Not volunteering to be the pivot man at your local bath house would be a good idea........If you don't engage in risky behavior you should be just fine....

And...yes, you did insinuate that small pox was "historically" spread by something other than it's primary means of transmission.
I'm re posting your quote because you are obviously having a Joe Biden moment.

the only way they can turn this into the next covid is if china or ukraine gets to work on their fauci funded gain of function research to make this go airborne. in the meantime this thing is operating exactly like hiv

They throw in the fear factor children getting Monkeypox headlines, through contact, making school districts squirm
