    Chinese CDC doesn't report it as such from what I've seen, thats all I need to know cause theyre the only ones that know how to handle pandemics :shrug-outta-hecks: They said most at risk population was dock workers and shoppers looking for clothes and suggested regular cleaning of fabrics in congested areas. Oh, and masks.

      just read a post on chinese social media that said that 'in the american empire it only spreads there, not by semen, but by sweating on each other profusely while mowing grass'

      Not only did the Chinese CDC not report it, they explicitly criticized it:

      "Stigmatising people because of a disease is never okay. Anyone can get or pass on monkeypox, regardless of their sexuality."

        I'd assume so but I figure a regular washing would be fine

          It may or may not be. Monkeypox is typically only killed at temperatures markedly higher than most washing machines and dryers can reach. However, it may be the case that the use of detergent will allow the virus to break down at a lower temperature. This latter bit is information I've seen repeated but without any source.

        I have, in the past, just brought a sleeping back and put that on top of the hotel bed because my sleeping bag might be caked in forest and god knows what but at least it's outside forest god knows what and not whatever is on the hotel beds.

          An alternative would be to just take off the bed covers and sleep on the linens as those are washed every visitor
