So far only half a dozen people have contracted it.

And:

"The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has detected seven monkeypox cases in total, all of which were diagnosed between 6 and 15 May. Four new ones were confirmed last week. Three of the new cases are in London and one linked case is in the north east of England. All four sufferers are men who identify as gay, bisexual or as men who have sex with men (MSM)."

Saw this on YT and couldn't help but share: The "K" in "monkeypox" is silent.

^^^For those who think this is some kind of government conspiracy. Take off your tin foil hats and just hope doctors and government get this under control.

I agree with you on that. See: Explainer: Monkeypox - How concerned should we be?

It is related to smallpox, but is usually milder, particularly the West African strain of the virus that was identified in a U.S. case, which has a fatality rate of around 1%. Most people fully recover in two to four weeks, the official said.

There are some weird "coincidences". It seems that just like shortly before the Covid pandemic started, there also was a simulation for a pox pandemic that according to the simulation would start with a terrorist attack in May 2022.

Frankly, I don't believe in such coincidences, I am more and more inclined to think it is all happening on purpose, orchestrated by our "leaders", the Gates Foundation, Schwab/WEF, Soros, etc.

Also of interest is the upcoming voting on the new WHO rules for pandemics, which would give the WHO many more powers at the expense of the powers of each nation. I think they are creating this new pandemic now in order to scare WHO member countries into voting yes.

I'll have you know, my tinfoil hat is rather flattering for my figure.
Anyway, I'm mostly on the sidelines on this issue, other than the occasional fun meme.

Don’t worry, Biden is going to shutdown the virus, like he promised with COVID.
