An NYC patient has tested positive for the same genus virus as monkeypox sparking calls from the health department for residents to wear masks indoors—just as New Yorkers were finally returning to mask-free normalcy after COVID-19. The CDC is still waiting for confirmation that it is monkeypox, after the patient tested positive for orthopoxvirus—the genus of viruses that includes smallpox, cowpox, horsepox, camelpox, and monkeypox. City officials say a second possible monkeypox patient tested negative for the virus. The health department is encouraging New Yorkers to wear face masks to protect against the new virus outbreak, as well as COVID-19 and the flu.

Comments:

In a roundabout way, face condoms could indeed prevent a person from engaging in homosexual acts with strangers in a lifestyle bar or a public toilet, as one does.

funny ain't it... Deviants and Liberals Blame conservatives and observant Religious people of "Intolerance and Hate" because thousands of years ago wise folks determined that practitioners of certain behaviors sickened and died. They called it Sin. NOW they are doing it again....and it is happening again. Don't monkey around with buttstuff...or monkeys.(AIDS TOO came from that direction)

Covid was purposely spread. I can count four times people coughed purposely around me or sneezed without covering their faces in the dairy section of the supermarket and a greeter at Walmart had the most god-awful cough I'd ever heard and he coughed often. Now I guess they will have runners out spreading this. This is treatable and there is a vaccine that works and has for decades. But, we'll see how much fun the WHO and CDC will have making up rules to supposedly stop this.

Monkey pox is not a respiratory disease. You can only get it through human contact. A mask is useless. But Fauci will be on the Sunday talk shows insisting on masks and lockdowns. We’ve given our health security over to the WHO, and they are in an emergency meeting right now putting another nefarious plan together.

Monkeypox is a weaponized version of Monkeypox 1.0, designed specifically to encourage nations to sign on with W.H.O. to "save the world". Its like the mobster who sends his men along to accidently break things in your store until you agree to pay protection money. So bend your head, or pick up your gun. Your move.

You really can't make this stuff up: - pre-Covid19, hundreds of studies had shown that masks don't prevent viral transmission; - the brain-less Fauci, in agreement with that mountain of proof, told us they don't work; - Almost overnight, Fauci and the alphabet agencies decided they do work, and mandated them everywhere; - the post-Covid19 statistics proved, yet again, that masks don't work; - when faced with a different pandemic, NYC mandates masks, again.

Regarding transmission (#5 and #15): Looked through wiki edits to find what was known about this disease before the topic went viral, then went a few months before the covid hysteria began, to something less likely to have been part of the 'new normal' control mode of the globalists. Here's what it said on May 16, 2019 about transmission: Humans can be infected by an animal via a bite, or by direct contact with an infected animal’s bodily fluids. The virus can also spread from human to human, by respiratory (airborne) contact or by contact with an infected person's bodily fluids. Risk factors for transmission include sharing a bed or room, or using the same utensils as an infected patient. An increased transmission risk is associated with factors involving introduction of virus to the oral mucosa. Makes me wonder what or who told us that it's only spread by anal sex.

Number 19 - from an article in Inside Medicine written by Jeremy Faust comes this quote: “Against the idea that this virus is more easily transmitted than earlier variants—say through smaller droplets or via the air—is that among the 89 cases being investigated for whom we know the gender, all 89 are males, a large number of whom are young and middle-aged adults. Public health agencies have reported that this monkeypox outbreak has been spreading in males who have had sexual contact with other infected males (or members of a shared sexual network). However, we do not know if that is true in some, many, most, or all of the cases.“ The article goes on to state that so far no females at all have been reported with the disease. And from the Washington Post: “On Friday, Britain’s Health Security Agency reported 11 new monkeypox cases, saying “a notable proportion” of the infections in the U.K. and Europe have been in young men with no history of travel to Africa and who were gay, bisexual or had sex with men. Authorities in Spain and Portugal also said their cases were in young men who mostly had sex with other men and said those cases were picked up when the men turned up with lesions at sexual health clinics. Experts have stressed they do not know if the disease is being spread through sex or other close contact related to sex.“ Sources like these are probably where people have gotten the idea that monkeypox is currently being spread though sexual contact between men.

This monkey pox virus appears to be emerging just in time for Biden, his politburo, and the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats to again mask up and shutdown the country before the November election. With the rational behind those political moves as being necessary to protect the homosexual and bisexual communities from so-called White Supremacists who are thought to trying to spread monkey pox throughout LGBTQI communities in the USA. With later political moves being made by Biden and the Democrats regarding the November election, to the effect that monkey pox, along with COVID and flu will make it much too dangerous for the USA to continue to have in person voting and instead to only have universal mail in voting, or to cancel the November election all together to some further date that Biden and the Democrats deem appropriate. Let’s stay alert, watch, and see what partisan political moves actually will be attempted in those respects in the months ahead!

Despite evidence to the contrary, there is the continued belief that there were no weapons of mass destruction found in Iraq. Between the Democrats, the media who serve as their propagandist, and those who have an irrational hatred of George W. Bush, there has been a refusal to give up the lie that nothing was found in Iraq. One of the reasons given by former President Bush for going into Iraq – beyond Hussein’s government funding international terrorist activities that did target Americans – was weapons of mass destruction were in fact found. In other words, the weapons were not the only reason, but also the financing of international terrorism.

P.D. is a pattern of anti-social or dysfunctional behavior caused not by mental illness, but by bad manners and bad social adaptation. There are three groups of personality disorders. In the emergency medicine part of my life, I taught residents that P.D.s are the weird, the wild, and the withdrawn.

Our current period of political turmoil can be considered to have begun with the presidential election of 2008. The meteoric rise of a virtual unknown from the Illinois state Senate to the White House is fairly unprecedented. Though he lacked any depth of understanding of why things are the way they are, Mr. Obama was gifted with a commanding stage presence. After all, superficial appeal invariably trumps substance among the political activist community. Obama was certainly helped when the Republican establishment decided that 2008 was a time to lose.
