Who says you need to quarantine? I wouldn’t bother if I had monkeypox.
Because those blisters break. You sweat, cough, sneeze, etc.

Yes you have to quarantine..just like chickenpox.

Why again? Why the neurotic need to quarantine to ensure you don’t pass the virus. To be blunt, who cares?

Obviously you don't care if you catch it and pass it on to others.

It's NOT only passed on by gay sex....any body fluid and that includes your spit and sweat.

You better hide in your basement with a hazmat suit if you don’t want to be exposed to the type of things you can catch in this world.

When I was in the Air Force, I got shots for things I didn’t even know were still an issue: anthrax, typhoid, malaria, measles, hepatitis, polio, smallpox, rabies, etc.

The point is that, there’s dozens of things you can catch, so just accept it and live your life.

Most Americans have no sick leave, vacation days, and live paycheck to paycheck.

Where exactly are they getting these free days to quarantine?

Monkeypox is NOT limited to just gay sex.
It is not spread by sex, it’s spread by simple contact, as in touching another person, rubbing against someone on a crowded subway, or touching a contaminated surface. —The media is very quick to focus on a microcosm within society, such as the gay community, after all, they’ve been attacked and disenfranchised for so long, seems fair game, but no mention of the Nigerians who initially brought it here. The airlines bring more disease to this country.

Gotta find something to win the Mid-terms. If not a deadly strain of COVID then some gay sex thing to lock the country down again and get the mail in ballots going. I shutter to think when a real Black Plague hits the world again. Everyone will ignore it because politicans have been trying to find a way of control forever and people are fed up

Any attempt at controlling it is often met with accusations of being xenophobic and systemic racist. Remember, when Trump tried to shut down the airlines from coming to the U.S. from the Far East? He was called a xenophobic racist, and the airlines ignored him, the flights continued, and covid reached every airport in the country, effectively spreading the covid outbreak. Americans also demand their freedom, often to the point of hysteria, and fight any attempt to curtail it in every way, even if it’s only temporary, even if it’s for the good of the people.

It was already here. Stopping airlines really did not change that.
