CDC: 7 deaths in Florida amid "one of the worst outbreaks of meningococcal disease among gay and bisexual men in U.S. history"
CBS News ^ | June 23, 2022

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.

How is this disease spread, and why is it only showing up in the male homosexual community?

God is love and love is love - so they say.

Men-ing-Ocaccal disease sounds appropriately named.

Remember when the degenerates were demanding marriage, explaining that it would ameliorate the rampant diseases in their “community” caused by unrestrained promiscuity with strangers? Yeah, that was one of their core arguments. “Marriage” would make them healthier because it would foster commitment and monogamy.

The four years following the Obergefell Supreme Court decision saw skyrocketing STD cases to new, unprecedented highs in all categories, driven largely by homosexuals. Even syphilis, which had largely been relegated to a third-world disease of a past, more medically primitive society made a stunning come back from the grave, in the population of queer men.

Them saying “love is love” is as meaningless as defining a woman as someone who says they’re a woman.

What about colds and flus and rashes and Covid and stomach bugs and countless other spreadable diseases? Why doesn’t the homosexual lifestyle come with a warning label like a box of cigarettes?

Maybe these diseases are visited upon gays for claiming sin and perversion are something to take “pride” in.

I think we both know the answer: Promoting sexual deviance is one of the key pillars of the population control crowd.

Oh the tragedy!!! Quick! Let’s spend $billions fighting this scourge so queers can continue to pound each other in the butt.

Gays are spreaders of disease, death, and moral decay.

There is a reason sodomites have been rejected by every decent culture for 3500 years.
