Scientists Want to Change the Name Of Monkeypox To Make It ‘Non-Discriminatory’ and ‘Non-Stigmatizing’.
The National Pulse ^ | 6/12/22 | Natalie Winters

“In the context of the current global outbreak, continued reference to, and nomenclature of this virus being African is not only inaccurate but is also discriminatory and stigmatizing,” the group of scientists amidst the ongoing outbreak.

“We therefore believe that a nomenclature that is neutral, non-discriminatory and non-stigmitizing [sic] will be more appropriate for the global health community,” continues the paper before proposing “hMPXV” as a placeholder.

“hMPXV?”

Heck, I can’t even spell that, much less pronounce it.

It anal sex a prominent way it’s transmitted?


Yep.

A lot of people don’t know this, but in the beginning, Aids was also spreading among heterosexuals in Europe, but not really much in the US. The reason? At least at that time, anal sex between heterosexuals was much more common in Europe than in the US. i.e. It was never really a “gay” disease. It was a “butt sex” disease. But homosexuals participate in that a lot more than heterosexuals do. It’s pretty rough on the body parts used. The anus is not designed for sex. The vagina is.

That being said, one reason it was spreading so much in Africa was because “dry” vaginal sex is also popular there. And that is rough on both parties as well. i.e. blood and tears.

At least, this is the info I’ve been exposed to back in the first couple of decades of the aids thingee.

So they’re saying that monkeys are racist. Which race do they offend and why?

They don’t want to discriminate against monkeys? What about bird flu and chicken pox?

What if monkeys had white hair?

So, the disease IS discriminatory, and also pretty stigmatizing, and those woke turds want to change the name?

Given that a good many of us know exactly now to NOT catch the disease, good grief!

Because monkeys have ‘feelings’ too? Or because guilty white ‘elites’ are one card short of a deck?
