In the study, a group of Portuguese researchers analyzed the first monkeypox sequence publicly released on May 20, along with 14 additional sequences released before May 27.
Researchers discovered around 50 genetic variations in the viruses, a figure six to 12 times higher than previous studies of other orthopoxviruses, a family of viruses to which monkeypox belongs.
The study said the mutation rate may suggest a case of “accelerated evolution.”
Monkeypox can infect anyone, but a number of the cases in the US and Europe have been found in gay men, leading health officials to push to raise awareness in the community even as tests remain scarce and only people who meet strict criteria like having lesions can even get tested.

That's how GRID mutated and spread at an unprecedented rate in the late 70s.
Definitely the wrong peter petri dish to deposit your essence.
“I, for one, have decided to not rub up against any gay guys with oozing pustules.”
That’s racist!
If the headline is correct, is it not reasonable to ask why the sudden acceleration after many years of a relatively moderate infection rate on the African continent?
Is this the ghost of Fauci that will haunt us forever?
I’m a Sierra Leone guy myself…
The Communists are try to rob us of our essence with fluoridated water.
Ever see a Communist drink tap water Mandrake?
I only drink rain water and grain alcohol…
Good call. Those Sierra Leone researchers got game.
AIDS was a clarion call throughout the Reagan Administration and then just went away.
SARS-CoV-2, affecting large swap of population, transmitted primarily through infected sputum. Response:
Masks, ‘6-foot social distancing’, lockdowns.
Monkeypox, affecting a distinct minority ‘deviant class’ and transmitted primarily through sexual contact. Response:
“meh.”
Says it all.
Soon the government will require all citizens to wear white masks where the sun don’t shine. To make sure you are under full compliance, all citizens will be required to undergo random inspections. All who are caught with soiled masks will be fined. That’s the ticket!
Government Controlled Chastity Belts.
Last Days plague.

Still wondering if this is really monkeypox...
Or an orthopoxvirus vectored CoupFlu vaxx virus and/or reactivation...
Fortunately for us, Dr. Fauci is prepared to take matters into his own hands and spank the monkey.
I was just reading this on NPR, an “OMG THERE’S NO TESTING!!! OMG! OMG!”
https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2022/06/25/1107416457/monkeypox-outbreak-in-us
Monkeypox outbreak in U.S. is bigger than the CDC reports. Testing is ‘abysmal’
(from the article) “The CDC would not divulge to NPR how many tests have been performed across the country, nor will the agency say where community transmission is likely occurring in the U.S. (NPR emailed the agency multiple times about these questions but the press person declined to comment or provide an interview.)”
DO YOUR JOB, CDC!! START TESTING EVERYBODY!!! (for this disease that seems, at this point, confined to gay men)
Can you tell what’s going to happen here? “Popular demand” is going to make this the next pandemic.
It’s conceivable that, since milopox causes you to have pus-filled sores that then break, leaving a hideous scab, it could become more transmissible than it already is. And if it can, it probably will.
Hm, I have a fever, muscle aches, and my anus hurts. Time to go to the bar!! I’m sure I’ll feel better after socializing with a huge crowd of other gay men. l
“accelerated evolution” = engineering or tampering
No lesions on the palms of the hands and I suspect it to be other than monkeypox: whether from reawakened viruses and other ailments from the weakening of the immune system from the Covid jabs or otherwise.
