Biden on monkeypox: 'Everybody' should be concerned, spread would be 'consequential'

metmike on monkeypox: Nobody should be concerned unless they enjoy scaring themselves over extraordinarily minuscule risks(like the fake climate crisis)  while ignoring risks that are 100,000 times greater, like dying in a car wreck, drug overdoses, suicides and COVID.

you don't suppose somebody whispering in Biden's ear...." Look crazy Joe here comes the reason to shut down America and give the media something to talk about besides what a disaster Joe is"

Actually McFarm, this could end up being a great excuse for relaxing voting laws.  Just in time for the lkkely disasterous midterms.   Let's watch and see  :-)

sure, just what this country needs. More disastrous open voting laws with more mules less ID and clear lanes to lie, steal and cheat. Cannot wait for Schumer and company to go running to the mikes

Is this the new republican mantra?

"If we lose............the other side cheated!"

That was a rhetorical question.

Of course it is!

Opinion | Trump’s Alternate Reality Hits a New Crazy Note with Dr. Oz

And it’s only a matter of time before other Republicans echo his call to declare victory early.

“Dr. Oz should declare victory. It makes it much harder for them to cheat with the ballots that they ‘just happened to find,’” Trump stated on Truth Social, his social media platform. He didn’t explain how the mechanics of such a tactic would work. Would Pennsylvania just put Oz on the general ballot by Oz’s (and Trump’s) decree?

metmike: Truth social reminds my of the big radio celebrity here in Evansville called Tiny Hughs, weighing in at over 400 lbs.

I just think it would be extremely interesting if dems decide the proper response to Monkeypox would be loosening voter id requirements...  For the good of the public of course  :-)

well apparently there are still those  that would never believe the dems took advantage of the covid mess, or any other mess, that lie, steal and cheat with abandon but never quite enough to actually change the counts......please

Monkeypox likely being spread from close contact during sex with multiple Partners

WHO Discloses How the Recent Monkeypox Outbreak Is Spreading (theepochtimes.com)

The recent outbreak of the monkeypox virus in North America and Europe is primarily spreading through sex, according to World Health Organization (WHO) officials on Monday, while confirming about 200 cases so far.

The virus itself is not a sexually transmitted infection, but WHO officials said the recent surge in cases is linked to homosexual men. However, they said that anyone can contract monkeypox, which is generally confined to Central and West Africa.

Expert: Monkeypox likely spread by sex at 2 raves in Europe | AP News

The recent outbreak of the monkeypox virus in North America and Europe is primarily spreading through sex, according to World Health Organization (WHO) officials on Monday, while confirming about 200 cases so far.

The virus itself is not a sexually transmitted infection, but WHO officials said the recent surge in cases is linked to homosexual men. However, they said that anyone can contract monkeypox, which is generally confined to Central and West Africa.

“We’ve seen a few cases in Europe over the last five years, just in travelers, but this is the first time we’re seeing cases across many countries at the same time in people who have not traveled to the endemic regions in Africa,” Dr. Rosamund Lewis, who runs WHO’s smallpox research, said in a streaming event on social media.

Health officials say most of the known cases in Europe have been among men who have sex with men, but anyone can be infected through close contact with a sick person, their clothing or bedsheets. Scientists say it will be difficult to disentangle whether the spread is being driven by sex or merely close contact.
