Not to worry, if this gets out of hand, the ruling class and corporate media will find a way to pin it on China.
Don't be racist, there's plenty of good people in america. The filthy plague rats or humanity are politicians and rulers and these have no nationality.
If I were to accept that comment as racistI would have to accept mocking the french or italians as racist too which I can't abide. It's not racist.
French people have the wrong shapped skull.
But what if @conducts@hexbear.net had actually said: "Amerikkka deserved 9/11 unlimited genocide on the first world!". Wild when you really think about it
3 month old account with the only comment being this one. Possible concern trolling detected. Opinion discarded.
ah yes the well known and widely recognized race, estadounidense.
H5N1 has an absolutely insane mortality rate. Like if human to human spread ever becomes a thing, that is a true pack what you can and get the fuck out moment. Every time we have animal to human spread it’s just rolling the dice for if a mutation will occur to propel human to human spread. This awful constant gamble that’s genuinely terrifying
Wait isn’t this news like 2-3 days old? I was really scared for a second, I thought it had gone from human to human. It’s the same guy who caught it from a cow I had already seen.
Still super scary, just not as scary as breaking news about human to human infection.
The CDC announcement came out April 5th, but I think other news stations might have picked up earlier.
I'm also pretty sure this is the first hexbear post about it.
Thought I saw a few posts in the news megathreads a few days ago.
This is the CDC doing a Friday news dump with the official press release.
What's the big deal it's not like the general population is potentially immunocompromised or anything.

This is talking about the population of immunocompromised people, eg, people on immunosuppressants. It is not saying that the entire population of America is immunocompromised
Here's the letter. I don't think I agree. I'd argue there's much less ambiguous language they could have used then.
As you are aware, the supply of JYNNEOS available for distribution through the end of this year is estimated to only be sufficient to immunize half of the individuals at highest risk for monkeypox. In the absence of an adequate supply, we have evaluated the use of alternative vaccines and potential ways to maximize the number of individuals immunized with the available vaccine supply. Use of alternative vaccines was determined to be either impractical or inadvisable at this time.
More specifically, ACAM2000 may not be appropriate now for a potentially immunocompromised population. The local and systemic toxicities of this vaccine may not be considered to be acceptable for the prevention of monkeypox. Consideration was also given to delaying second vaccine doses by 3 to 6 months. However, following careful review of the available animal data with JYNNEOS, and acknowledging the absence of data applicable to this situation, this option was determined to be inadvisable, particularly because it might both be insufficiently protective while at the same time providing individuals with a false sense of reassurance that they were protected against monkeypox when the actual level of protection would be unknown and quite possibly inadequate.
As they did later on when speaking of doses of JYNNEOS.
Yes, this dose is appropriate for individuals who are taking PrEP or PEP. The Fact Sheet for Healthcare Providers Administering Vaccine notes that Immunocompromised persons, including those receiving immunosuppressive therapy, may have a diminished immune response to JYNNEOS.
That, and well, we are all pretty much immunocompromised at this point. Turns out multiple infections of a virus that attacks endothelial cells isn't a good idea.
I agree with teapot.

"Population" just means "group of people with this particularity" in epidemiology, not "the american population." Nothing in the text you shared suggests america is immunocompromised
Regardless of what the letter says, it's a moot point. A year and a half later the general pop of the US is largely immunocompromised. Unless you're living under a rock, it's pretty obvious that we are living through a mass disabling event and humanity is on the path of mass immune dysregulation
headlines you write when when you definitely studied the history of urban pathology
any time a news article about a disease rapidly spreading among animals contains the "risk of spillover is low" qualifier it's time to stock up on rice and beans
boy if i weren't disassociating 24/7 I would probably be pretty worried rn

let's light this candle i guess. surely amerikkka will do better on a second round.Large scale factory farming with little regulatory oversight and wretched conditions for both animal and human alike.
