Former Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that the window to control the spread of the monkeypox virus in the United States may be closed.
Partial transcript as follows:
MARGARET: Give us a sense of the scale of this because the CDC numbers are out. They say they’re only eight women within that. No children. You’re saying this is a pandemic? That’s not a word the administration is using yet, what level of emergency are we at?
GOTTLIEB: Yeah look, and I think they’re going to be reluctant to use the word pandemic, because it implies that they’ve failed to contain this. And I think at this point, we’ve failed to contain this. We’re now at the cusp of this becoming an endemic virus where this now becomes something that’s persistent that we need to continue to deal with. I think the window for getting control of this and containing it probably has closed, and if it hasn’t closed, it’s certainly starting to close. 11,000 cases across the world right now. 1,800 cases, as you said, in the US. We’re probably detecting just a fraction of the actual cases because we have a very, we had for a long time a very narrow case definition on who got tested. And by and large, we’re looking in the community of men who have sex with men and STD clinics. So we’re looking there, we’re finding cases there. But it’s a fact that there’s cases outside that community right now. We’re not picking them up, because we’re not looking there. This has spread more broadly in the community. I wouldn’t be surprised there’s thousands of cases right now.\

Yes, Danny this is what I was talking about but didn’t have time to go into. I was cautioning you NOT to become a propagandist like Scott Gottlieb (rightly called by Jane Long, a “tool”) has been from the beginning of the scamdemic. And he reappears here for the first time in months, latching onto a new “variant” in effect-—it is entirely spurious, but here he is , gently warning with his warm and concerned demeanor, that we “still” haven’t contained this “virus” they certainly hope will help further weaken us and provide another foundation for more fearmongering if not more lockdowns, restrictions, lockdowns, etc.
That poster, sadly, lives in complete fear and wants as many as possible to join him, in said fear.
Misery loves company, and all.
Hear, hear.
Just let it run it's course.
A very knowledgeable person I know is concerned about eating out as time passes.
He observes that many servers are gay and monkeypox can likely be passed in their airspace. Not to mention those preparing food.
I’d like to know if monkeypox is easily killed when food is cooked or heated to a certain temp ?
It’s not airborne, unless you believe anal intercourse with other men is airborne.
