Then would you like to pay higher taxes to pay for the building of new prisons in which to put homosexuals in who are caught indulging in gay sex? Many prisons are at capacity. But as simple common sense would tell me, I'm not sure putting homosexuals in prisons would stop gay sex there. Or AIDS.
There needs to be a shut down of gay bars and other places where gays are known to mingle. That should scare and discourage enough of them.
But Chickenpox and Monkeypox aren't quite the same when being sick with it. If you saw on TV the awful widespread sores on people's faces and bodies and remember having chickenpox, then it is quite easy to know the two are not the same viral illness. Monkeypox is grosser!

I don't watch TV so I don't know what they're showing you.
I do know that the average person will
A) barely be able to differentiate monkey pox blisters from ingrown hairs or pimples
B) they will not cover the entire body, you will see a few here or there, maybe the most concentrated on your genitalia if you caught it through sex
C)You may have a fever that lasts 2-3 days
D)Some of your sores maybe painful (use vaseline, no drugs needed), all will be itchy
E)It's no big deal.
I have to say I did not expect monkeypox to spread as widely and infect as many people so quickly as it has. It now seems inevitable that monkeypox will spread well beyond the gay population and there will be breakouts in community living facilities and, especially, schools this fall.
I broke it down even more. The majority of those 23% are IV drug abusers. Not catching it through heterosexual sex but sharing needles.
The other segment of heterosexuals are infants born to HIV+ mothers. It’s virtually unheard of to contract HIV through sex, especially heterosexual sex. I’d have no second thoughts having unprotected sex with someone whose HIV+. Sex is not the mode of transmission
Good grief. Do some reading.
If HIV is not being passed on via hetero sex, how are pregnant women giving it to their babies? How do you think the pregnant woman caught the HIV virus?

It's not just in the gay community. Children are catching it. Straight people are catching it. Some people are bi, so it's not just going to stay in the gay community. I would be curious to know how many are catching it via casual contact, and not just intimate contact.
I thought the two kids who caught it were the kids of a gay male couple.
Absolutely not for me! I'd gladly rather have to wear a mask on a 12 hour flight than from having all those sores on my face and body, while feeling like crap that could last for a week or more. Think of all those doctors and nurses in hospitals and clinics who are still expected to wear masks all day.
the cdc falling short of saying abstinence? you can’t expect the sex crazed crowd to not act on their impulses
Basically almost all of society is sex crazed at this point. Not everyone can get regular sex, but all women can if they simply leave the house.
They've been pushing hedonism in our culture for a long time. They make us addicted to our dopamine hits so we are all staring at screens and chasing our next hit of stimulation at all times.
People waiting for the government to tell them what to do... children. We've raised two generations of children which believe that the government is their parent. They defend it like they'd defend a parent, they don't challenge its authority, like a parent, and they don't question anything it tells them - just like a little kid.
We live in a society of children being told what to do by a government parent which doesn't love them. Fun times ahead, let me tell ya.

Early on intravenous drug use played a large part (sharing works), still does. There was also transmission through blood transfusions (Arthur Ashe and Elizabeth Glaser), although that's pretty much a non-factor now.
