    The pictures are not pretty, so I've put the tweet in spoiler mode.   Note that the current outbreak is of a different clade.       WHO declares mpox a global public heal

    If you're MSM and haven't had both shots I would honestly just lie about your sexual history to get both Jynneos shots before there's new strains of this that reach the other continents then there's i

I thought the mode of transmission was just being in close contact? They need to stop gays from hooking up until they eradicate this.

That’s based on the typical monkeypox, the fact that this is spreading mainly in gays indicates it’s mainly spreading by unprotected anal sex.

 

If it was as transmittable by close contact and even oral sex then more straight people would also be getting it.

Well it’s very early days, we don’t know yet. And if it’s indeed via anal then all the more reason to shut the gays down. Public health >>> any potential backlash. Or do you want to be afraid you’ll end up looking like the elephant man every time you go for a hook up?

The fact that you cant even see what’s wrong with this is…troubling, to say the least. 

Glad to see this clown getting owned. He should be banned from Twitter for spreading misinformation

The good sis Chise stepping in as well. :jonnycat:

 

Why do y'all keep saying ''gay men'' in here ? Can't y'all just say anal sex ?

wtf a virus that potentially spreads through anal sex right before pride month?

you can't make this **** up

The tone and intent of some of the comments in this thread about gay men are very uncomfortable to be honest.

So you need to take out all the places where gays can meet each other. It would lead to backlash yes but worse would be to get monkeypox and have scars all over your body.

Why gays only? What about straight people who have sex with multiple female partners? Swingers clubs? You are being extremely homophobic with this.

Is it normal for this to be spreading so fast?! It’s giving me COVID first month vibes

You don't have to sleep with someone, you can also get it if you touch an open wound or if you use bed sheets that someone with monkeypox has used, etc.

 

Three cases have been traced to a gay festival in Antwerp, Belgium. Belgian government has asked the organisation to inform the thousands of people who attended about the infections. They claim there's reason to believe that a person or persons from abroad had the virus while at the festival

  

Kinda ironic that if the ATRL mods follow Protocol he'll get banned. The homophobia and ignorance

Get banned because I’m honest about my own community??? Most of these cases are gays. All I’m saying is shut down the way gays have sex until this is eradicated or it will spread badly.
