Don’t take chances. Let’s learn from recent mistakes. Take precaution. https://www.cdc.gov/poxvirus/monkeypox/clinicians/infection-control-hospital.html

Edit

Sigh. I googled Feigl-Ding and I learned he is not a source to be trusted. I'm not going to share any more tweets by him. I had no idea how questionable he is...

Eric Feigl-Ding

Feigl-Ding has disclosed he is not sub-specialized in infectious diseases and claims to have never misrepresented himself as an infectious disease epidemiologist. [...] His tweets during the [covid] pandemic have also at times been criticized by other scientists as alarmist, misleading, or inaccurate.

Also - for what it's worth - he's a democratic politician. I wonder if his tweets are designed more for his "brand" than anything else.

    Legit feels like doublespeak more often than not with the only desire is for individuals to maintain cohesion to the party-line or ideology outside of any connection to reality.
