Pet hamsters belonging to monkeypox patients should be isolated or killed, say health chiefs (from May 2022)

Pet hamsters, gerbils and guinea pigs belonging to monkeypox patients should “ideally be isolated” in government laboratories, according to European health authorities.

In a worst case scenario where monitored isolation and regular testing is unfeasible, the agency suggested a cull should be considered as “a last resort” to prevent the disease gaining a permanent foothold in the region.

So far, 90 cases have been detected across the UK since the virus was first identified in England in early May - including 12 on Thursday - while 344 suspected or confirmed cases have been reported in more than 20 countries worldwide.

In guidance published this week, the European Centre for Disease Control (ECDC) urged both those infected with monkeypox and their close contacts to avoid their pets, amid fears the virus could become endemic across the continent if it makes the jump to animals.

I hope the hamsters bite them! Gerbils are tame but I’ve never liked hamsters.

Well, there are some big ashholes out there!

Not that this photo has ANYTHING to do with 'big ashholes'.

Among other things, if you don’t want to get AIDS, don’t share needles! If you don’t want to get monkeypox, don’t share gerbils.

Where angels fear to tread…

In order to save the Human species, it's time to have a serious discussion about re-criminalzing homosexual behavior.

Worse than decriminalizing it was normalizing it.

This article is the height of chutzpah. It’s written as if there isn’t anything ironic or crazy about the juxtaposition of schlong covid and hamsters.

Western Civilization is teetering on the brink.
