President Biden said Monday that he did not believe a quarantine to prevent the spread of monkeypox in the United States would be necessary, saying there are sufficient vaccine doses available to combat any serious flare-up of the disease.

A neighbor came down with it last week. They want to test him again to make sure, but he’s up in a tree and won’t come down.

No, just other poofters.

Besides, I would imagine that a prairie dog is a bit large. Didn’t you ever see that Lemmywinks episode of South Park?

Because they aren’t and because it’s not an airborne virus. You need to touch the persons open sores or swap fluids. There are plenty of treatments for it has been around for a long time and the risk of death is less than 1%.

It should be. Immunity from a real vaccine should be good.

Reports are that the Wuhan Whooping Gleep Inc. Was ‘massaging’ the virus. If so, We need to try Quackony Fauxi and Bill Bluescreenofdeath for premeditated murder.

But, it ain’t just for gays. It is very popular on college campuses these days.

Don’t ask me why. There was never any interest in it for me. And my wife was a hard pass. Ha ha.

Yeah, now. But just wait when things get worse in our economy and watch the coming lock downs.

How’s this for an inflammatory statement? Biden doesn’t want to quarantine the sick, because he wants lockdowns (later). In other words, spread it!

If Biden said it, it is probably wrong.

Yeah, but I figure once you’ve done a few Lemmywinks, you’re ready for something bigger. Remember, Mr. Garrison’s ex later stuck Paris Hilton up his a@@, and she is definitely bigger than a prairie dog.

De ja moo

Remember nanzi saying

Don’t worry, it’s nothing

Come to China town and hug !

Same play book.

And the usual freeper suspects are busy informing everyone it’s not sodomy spread but airborne spread.

Here we go again.
