Monkeypox: That unasked question
American Thinker.com ^ | May 21, 2022 | Monica Showalter

Scientists, it seems, are baffled by the unexplained appearance of the smallpox-like illness associated with rodents called "monkeypox" in the West which brings unsightly sores to the skin of those who are afflicted with it.

Long a disease seen mostly in parts of tropical Africa, it has now made appearances in the U.S. continental Europe, Canada, and the U.K., all at approximately the same time.

According to the Associated Press:

BLONDON (AP) — As more cases of monkeypox are detected in Europe and North America, some scientists who have monitored numerous outbreaks in Africa say they are baffled by the unusual disease's spread in the West.

Cases of the smallpox-related disease haven’t previously been seen among people with no links to central and West Africa. But in the past week, Britain, Spain, Portugal, Italy, U.S., Sweden and Canada all reported infections, mostly in young men who hadn’t previously traveled to Africa.

France, Germany, Belgium and Australia confirmed their first cases of monkeypox on Friday.

“I’m stunned by this. Every day I wake up and there are more countries infected,” said Oyewale Tomori, a virologist who formerly headed the Nigerian Academy of Science and who sits on several World Health Organization advisory boards.

“This is not the kind of spread we’ve seen in West Africa, so there may be something new happening in the West,” he said.

Viruses and bacterias, of course, can mutate, which could explain the sudden rate of the spread.

But the unasked question in all of the stories cited is how the disease got here to start with.

What’s to be baffled? Almost everything is in someone’s test tube some where. They get out.

Old joke when AIDS first hit:

Q. What's the worst part of getting AIDS?
A. Trying to convince your parents you are Haitian.

Belgian Monkeypox outbreak linked to [DARKLANDS] fetish festival

https://insiderpaper.com/belgian-monkeypox-outbreak-linked-to-fetish-festival/

Darklands is a ticketed event that describes itself as a collaboration of clubs and organizations employing 150 volunteers and hosting daytime commercial events alongside evening parties.

“The various tribes in the gay fetish community (leather, rubber, army, skinhead, puppies…) come together to create a unique spectacle of fetish brotherhood,” the site says.

Monkeypox is not usually fatal but often manifests itself through fever, muscle aches, swollen lymph nodes, chills, exhaustion and a chickenpox-like rash on the hands and face.

The virus can be transmitted through contact with skin lesions or droplets of bodily fluid from an infected person.

Yet we will watch as Fauxi and the WHO handle it as they did AIDS, but with the added bonus of masks and lock downs.

Yep, it got where it is through the butts of perverts.

Regular little disease vectors they are.

Right, we need to change the name to gaypox, or faggotpox so it doesn’t sound racist. Smirk.

“This is not the kind of spread we’ve seen in West Africa, so there may be something new happening in the West,” he said.

They'd rather allow it to spread than offend the BLTGQ community by saying its a "gay sex thing".
