    Don't forget the gigantic pustules! Can't wait to see my CHUD coworkers trying to sneak into the office with those while claiming that they're just hives from seasonal allergies as they blindly stumble around the open-floor cubical farm and leak monkeypox sore juice all over the walls.

      I have had a visceral fear of pox-based illnesses for most of my life. I've gone actually kind of insane thinking about this the past few days.

      I would have to be strapped down and sedated if I got this

        Yep, I'm right there with you. I have chronic dermatitis, which basically means this shit's going to spread like wildfire if I get it. Thankfully, the new version of the smallpox vaccine is enough to protect against it (and is safe/approved for people with skin conditions), but I don't think there's enough in the stockpile to start rolling it out yet.

          Jesus fucking christ this is going to be the second "once in a century" pandemic where I am double fucked then. If it's going to be like this could the fourty days and nights of rain just fucking come already because I am beyond sick of this shit.
