One person says she's concerned for them, that's not evidence gays are any more susceptible or that they are the primary spreaders.Why are health officials paying extra special attention to them ?
Kinda odd then no schwulenkneipe customer
Fauci will get em with a new azt lol
Make sure you get the shot
I thought I already provided this above.Maybe but in this instance the primary recognised method of catching is touch on a cut bit of skin which may be so tiny you do not know about it. Can you provide a link which actually says respiratory droplets is the main method of spread. I am not having a go. I just think it is sensible to get this right.
Human-to-human transmission is thought to occur primarily through large respiratory droplets. Respiratory droplets generally cannot travel more than a few feet, so prolonged face-to-face contact is required. Other human-to-human methods of transmission include direct contact with body fluids or lesion material, and indirect contact with lesion material, such as through contaminated clothing or linens.
Yes. The article I saw that in was saying it to warn them. It is not that surprising that if it got into the gay community that would be where it was spreading which is why they were given that warning. You could choose another group and it would be the same thing. If it got among them it would be spreading among them because so far it has affected few people.
- The disease has mainly been hitting young men who have sex with men, but that doesn't mean it's being sexually transmitted.
Stop linking monkeypox to gay and bisexual men, disease experts say: This virus spreads via contact, regardless of who you are
Some health officials are studying monkeypox clusters in men who have sex with men, but a CDC official says the sexuality aspect is a red herring.

I had looked at your link but only as far as describing how you got it. Obviously if this is what you have read it will be what you believe. It is not however what I have heard so not what I believe. We will need to wait till we hear more.I thought I already provided this above.
From my reading it can be spread through any exchange of bodily fluids.If they find out it is sexually transmitted they will twist themselves into pretzels to avoid saying how disastrous anal sex is for STDs. Also for biology. Can't say that. TRUTH but inconvenient.
Well keep in mind that people coughing, sneezing, spitting etc is where other can easily pick it up on their hands and rub it then into open scratches, wounds, eyes, ears, mouth and nose.I had looked at your link but only as far as describing how you got it.

That hasn't been shown to be the case with Monkey Pox but it's certainly generally a much riskier way to have sex.It can. But anal sex is the most risky and always has been. You gonna deny science?
Is Anal Sex Riskier Than Vaginal Sex?
Scientists have focused on figuring out what kind of sex is the riskiest for spreading HIV.

Human-to-human transmission can result from close contact with respiratory secretions, skin lesions of an infected person or recently contaminated objects. Transmission via droplet respiratory particles usually requires prolonged face-to-face contact, which puts health workers, household members and other close contacts of active cases at greater risk. However, the longest documented chain of transmission in a community has risen in recent years from six to nine successive person-to-person infections. This may reflect declining immunity in all communities due to cessation of smallpox vaccination. Transmission can also occur via the placenta from mother to fetus (which can lead to congenital monkeypox) or during close contact during and after birth. While close physical contact is a well-known risk factor for transmission, it is unclear at this time if monkeypox can be transmitted specifically through sexual transmission routes. Studies are needed to better understand this risk.
Where was Obama in 1983?OK here is the UN on it.
Mpox (monkeypox)
WHO fact sheet on monkeypox: includes key facts, definition, outbreaks, transmission, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, WHO response.www.who.int
It gives both without saying which is the most common. The first case of Monkeypox in the US was in 1983 with regular tiny outbreaks since. This one just seems to be spreading more quickly than the others.
More quickly? Not really, we've only had one confirmed case in N. America so far.OK here is the UN on it.

Sorry. Wasn't meaning US but in general. In Europe and the UK it appears to be infecting more people quicker than usual.More quickly? Not really, we've only had one confirmed case in N. America so far.
Don't let anyone get you caught up in their hype, there's no chance this turns into something akin to the old Small Pox epidemics we used to have.
I've not seen anything but a few very small outbreaks totaling fewer than 100 confirmed cases there, what are you referring to?Sorry. Wasn't meaning US but in general. In Europe and the UK it appears to be infecting more people quicker than usual.
Gay men, who brought us Human Immunodeficiency Virus, HIV, once called the "gay plague" in San Francisco, which has killed 36 million across the world, are partly responsible for monkey pox outbreak.
"Gay, bisexual, and men who have sex with men are particularly at risk (for monkey pox), as evidenced by the recent outbreak in the U.K. which occurred amongst men in the LGBTQ+ community." yahoo.com
Anal intercourse is a disease generator. Here they come again.
I am sure that is so but the number is usually extra special tiny due to it being so difficult to catch. 100 people is what is being called a lot in EuropeI've not seen anything but a few very small outbreaks totaling fewer than 100 confirmed cases there, what are you referring to?
More than 100 confirmed or suspected cases of monkeypox have been reported in 12 countries, including the US

More cases of a rare disease have been reported worldwide, including in the United States -- where one health official said he expects new cases in the days ahead.edition.cnn.com
One headline I saw said there could be as many as 220 cases in the US.
It's sensationalism.I am sure that is so but the number is usually extra special tiny due to it being so difficult to detect. 100 people is what is being called a lot in Europe
'Unpleasant' Monkeypox outbreak now Europe's biggest EVER as more than 100 cases reported
