    Did you blame the spread of AIDS on gays too?
    No, I don't blame diseases on people. That's more or less supers ious.

    I asked if you blamed the spread of a disease on a certain subset of people. Are you claiming to not do that either?

    It's not an STI. Once it gets in schools, Katie bar the door.
    Skin contact and bodily fluids are vectors

    Not aireborne,. So far

    No, I don't blame the spread of disease on people either. Owing to the long latency of monkeypox (10-14 days), infected people usually have no idea they're infected with or transmitting the disease. Similar is true of AIDS.

    Odd detail, conflicts with recent CDC statements

    Monkeypox

    After zoonotic transmission, monkeypox spread from person to person is principally respiratory; contact with infectious skin lesions or scabs is another, albeit less common, means of person-to-person spread. African rodents and primates may harbor the virus and infect humans, but the reservoir host is unknown.

    San Francisco is going ape starting Monday/8-1. Full blown emergency just like with the HIV/AIDs. MSM has to stipulate to the gay bent here, nary-other-choice.

    Anecdata, but stories like this keep popping up. Given limited testing supplies, rationing has been highly targeted.

    “We don’t have much of a window to fix this,” Hotez said. “Once it gets into the rodent population, it becomes a fixture here, like it’s been in Central and West Africa.”

    " ing papers" were a real thing when I went to college in the 1980s. Not universal, but definitely came up from time to time. Some people asked to see your AIDS test.

    This CDC travel advisory for the Democratic Republic of the Congo is still up too. Seems odd that whether monkeypox spreads through the air should depend on which continent you're standing on.

    DHS fact sheet

    • MPXV, like all OPVs, is very stable in the environment. Theseviruses can be stable for days to weeks under somecir stances.
    • MPXV can survive in scabs for months to years.
    • MPXV is resistant to desiccation in hot and cold environments.
    • MPXV may be stable for days to weeks in water, soil, and onrefrigerated food.
    • MPXV is susceptible to inactivation under acidic conditions
    • The virus enters the body through broken skin, the respiratory tract,and other non-respiratory mucous membranes.
    • Human-to-human transmission is thought to occur primarilythrough respiratory droplets, direct contact with body fluids/lesionmaterial, and fomites contaminated with lesion material.
    • Based on available evidence, rates of droplet transmission inthis outbreak do not appear to be different from prioroutbreaks.
    • New research suggests that the current outbreak strain may haveac ulated mutations that increase its transmissibility. However,there is not yet enough evidence to suggest that these dramaticallyincrease the R0 of the virus.
    • The basic reproductive number (R0) of monkeypox is generallyestimated to be between 0.57 to a maximum of 1.25. However, anR0 for the current outbreak has not been determined.
    • Evidence suggests that the transmission rate of MPXV hasincreased over time due to declining immunity in the populationafter the end of smallpox vaccination in the general public.
    • Direct contact among men who have sex with men (MSM) currentlyhas been cited as a source of a significant number of the infectionsin the current outbreak

    I took six years each of science and math at a STEM intensive high-school, admittedly it wasn't my metier, but I placed out of most of the biology and chemistry I might have been capable of completing in college, 15 credit hours or so.

    I don't recall saying the CDC followed the science, what I was trying to say -- I think it was fairly clear -- is that the CDC got it wrong. That East Asia's hunches were better than the putative science of our go to public health ins ution.


    studies major or library sciences.

    Swing and a miss, I majored in English. If I had it to do over again, I'd take history, the writing's much better.

    California and Illinois on Monday declared health emergencies in their states regarding the monkeypox virus.

    The governors' proclamation will accelerate the administration of vaccines, the work of contact tracing, and prevention efforts, officials said.California and Illinois on Monday declared health

    Polio found in NY waste water, before the first case was detected.
