:desolate:
Just a few paragraphs down and they admit it's actually spread through close contact. Like, not even hugging tightly, but wearing the clothes of someone who's had it. Good thing no one ever physically interacts with another person outside of sex.
They also said it's actually super stable outside hosts, a complete 180 from less than a week ago when they were saying it's nothing to be worried about because it dies in 2 nanoseconds outside a person.
The bulb is gonna blow if they keep flipping the switch at this rate
you can literally get smallpox from like century plus old scabs if they’re preserved well enough
Has this actually happened or is it just theorized and portrayed in popular media like that episode of House?
People used to insufflate fresh scabs to inoculate themselves (before the invention of the vaccine) because it would cause a mild infection.

Mostly because you get a smaller viral load this way, and then it's up to your immunity.
'google, search scabs infectious disease'
google: heres 7 pages on how the rumor about biolabs in Ukraine is fake putler russian propaganda, slava ukranoid.
hah, it's true since they strongly prioritized MSM websites and every google query leads to china bad

Type up obscure IC part numbers and theirs a good chance you'll get something.

If you fucking deer eat even one more of my tomatoes I swear to high Christ I will make you wish you had been born chinese sparrows
I was a kid during the early AIDs crisis and had to grow up seeing every christian psychopath bleat on about it.
Now I get to see the scapegoating happen in real time.
Every fucking person in the media class to the gulag.
Me to "journalists":
"Oh yeah, don't worry, it's a really comfortable re-education facility. It's just right through this big door in the rock." :troll:
:pit:
hey might explode the fast fashion industry because everyone is afraid of being called gay
Not sure anything will pry Americans away from their treats, even as they die an agonizing death with pustules covering their entire body.
:doomer-femme: oh god I only just started getting girl clothes that I like and fit me right…
Good thing no one ever physically interacts with another person outside of sex.
Haha, yes! My ticket is in! :agony-wholesome:
That (if true) is at least more manageable than covid. I really don't want two plagues circulating at once.
Like, not even hugging tightly, but wearing the clothes of someone who’s had it.
O_O
monkeypox blankets. fuck, it's worse than I thought because the CDC is insinuating that it's mostly spread through hookups and the such but it spreads just like smallpox :\Yeah. It's insane. You can get it from fucking your partner. You can also get it from hugging your grandma. It's like saying the type of gas used in a car caused a collision.
I seriously doubt that the people in the new industry bother to read papers directly, so it isn't too surprising that they wouldn't know anything.
Gay and bisexual men are the first groups they noticed it in because those groups are already “at risk” and because of that they get screened for health issues more often.
This is complete bullshit. The queer community is literally doing the right thing by regularly visiting their healthcare providers and we’re still being scapegoated.
It's actually because of a superspreader event at a pride/music festival at the Canary islands, a Spanish territory. So nothing to do with actually being gay, it just happened to be the first big superspreader event.
What are the odds it's spreading like hell airborne and they're only focusing on sexual transmission because it's coincidentally primarily gay men affected?
Edit: from @VILenin further down the thread:
Just a few paragraphs down and they admit it’s actually spread through close contact. Like, not even hugging tightly, but wearing the clothes of someone who’s had it. Good thing no one ever physically interacts with another person outside of sex.
:agony-consuming:
The monkeypox symptoms from the CDC and WHO have been updated to include gential sores as well.
Could be both, no one knows at this point.
it’s spreading like hell airborne
Basically nil. It's R value is apparently .59
Could you send me a source on that? I believe you, but also want to read it over. Sounds like I might not be going to my first pride this year...

Also sauna in the articles basically means a gay club/hook up area
Yeah, it's not the kind of sauna where you pour hot water on rocks.
This is fucking bullshit. Variola viruses are not STDs. It's appropriate that we have a new AIDS-esque scare just as a wave of homophobia and transphobia is hitting the anglosphere (and maybe elsewhere idk.)
It already has, check the tweets under any news source tweeting articles about it
Atleast in the US we don't have that Dr. Fauci character incharge of public health again, like he was during the HIV outbreak. :blob-no-thoughts:
Oh god we do dont we? He was in charge during aids? And he hasn't been [redacted]?
If you look on rmonkeypox there are multiple threads insinuating that Russia started this as a biowarfare weapon and it's based off of some CIA article (sources are CIA connected).
reddit is objectively a CIA front ever since Ashooh took over
but probably before that too :shrug-outta-hecks:
I actually figured it would be spun that way a week ago. Anything to get into ww3, apparently.
It's not a completely unfounded speculation. The outbreaks did start during a time of crisis and they did start in countries hostile to Russia.
it is pretty unfocused speculation biowarfare in west africa using a disease with a low rate of transmission or fatality makes no sense as a move for Russia especially since Russia is winning in Ukraine and that would be a massive and pointless escalation
Call me crazy, but two fucking consecutive (possible) pandemics? It's either hysteria, or something seems massively fucked.
wouldnt be the first time. polio, smallpox, scarlet fever... lot of stuff back in the day in the 40s. if anything we've had a pretty big down time
Monkeypox is a disease caused by a virus in the same family as smallpox but is not as severe, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. However, monkeypox can kill as many as 1 in 10 people who contract the disease, based on observations in Africa, according to the CDC or 10 out of 100 (10%)
For comparison:
-
Smallpox killed roughly 3 out of 10 people who contracted the disease or 30 out of 100 (30%).
-
Covid kills between 3-6 out of 100 people who contract it (3%-6%) - if anyone has a better number on this please let me know. CDC's website was being fucked.
The messaging on all of this is completely fucked.
Jesus christ it feels like we are walking back into 2020 but it's with an even worse death trap
There are two strains of monkey pox, the one currently circulating by all accounts is 1% fatal.
more lethal strains of diseases also tend to be less contagious
-
I haven't touched another human being since the Covid pandemic started 43 years ago.
There's a better chance of the evangelicals being right about god than of them engineering this virus. They make up the right wing base, not the elite.
I mean Nigeria, and other West African countries, has had a on and off Monkeypox outbreak since 2018, and the Canary islands, the Spanish territory in which the pride event took place, is right there. Geographically it makes sense, all it takes is for one person to hop over and have close contact with someone else, spread it amongst everyone and there's an outbreak.
The people who are anti-science and who won't even get vaccinated somehow managed to genetically engineer a virus.
engineered Christian theofascist terrorism shit.
My sibling in Christ have you ever talked to those people. They would not use something as obscure as biological warfare, they'd just shoot up the place. Also, Monkeypox has an R value of .59 and a fatality rate of 1%. It wouldn't be worth the trouble of using as a biowarfare weapon.
