Health officials on Wednesday recommended that men in Florida who have sex with other men get a meningococcal vaccine following what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention called "one of the worst outbreaks of meningococcal disease among gay and bisexual men in U.S. history."
The CDC said in a statement that there have been at least 24 cases and seven deaths among gay and bisexual men caused by the bacteria in Florida recently. The CDC also recommended that gay and bisexual men traveling to Florida should ask their health care provider about getting the vaccine.
"Because of the outbreak in Florida, and the number of Pride events being held across the state in coming weeks, it's important that gay and bisexual men who live in Florida get vaccinated, and those traveling to Florida talk to their healthcare provider about getting a MenACWY vaccine," said José Romero, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases.
Meningococcal disease is caused by a bacteria, and when the linings of the brain and spinal cord become infected, it is called meningitis.
Meningococcal disease usually presents as an infection of meningitis or a bloodstream infection about three to seven days after exposure, the CDC said. Both are serious and can be deadly.

Besides telling male homosexuals to get the meningitis vaccine, also tell them to stop engaging in sodomy without condoms with multiple anonymous partners. It would be interesting to quantify how much of a disease-spreading event "gay pride" month is.

I think I see what you did there. Looks like my tagline is still relevant even though June is over with.

Promoting sexual deviance is one of the key pillars of the population control crowd.

Seven deaths is a “worst outbreak?” Are queers really that precious?

By all means, keep letting Deep State play divide and conquer.
Gad, I'm glad some of you weren't around for the Revolution. We'd still be singing God Save the Queen.

receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.”
