Investigators Suggest Conjunctivitis May Transmit Monkeypox

Monkeypox is not confirmed to spread through tears during conjunctivitis, but smallpox is. Investigators noted that the similarity between the 2 diseases might indicate that conjunctivitis can spread monkeypox.

It’s a sexually transmitted homosexual disease. But they want to pretend it’s not.

Being sexually transmitted does not preclude other forms of transmission. We should probably watch Mumbai because they are having a conjunctivitis outbreak, see if Monkeypox spikes there or not.

So if its spread by conjunctivitis why did that dog in France who lived with two gay men have anal ulcers AND monkeypox.

What were they doing with the dog?

IMO they are looking to deflect from any kids that end up with the pox.

I just think that if in addition to sexual transmission, that if the conjunctivitis that develops in 1/4 of the cases also spreads the disease, we she probably be aware and figure out best practices since doctors just pretty much ignore pinkeye.

Be it a curse, “a pox on all our houses”, or for a more conventionally scientific reason, I think we need to bear this in mind before it becomes more commonplace.

The conjunctivitis came from looking for love in all the wrong places.

Looks like another wave of plague and pestilence. Some people just wanna’ die early and will keep doing the same dangerous behaviours.

I had no idea they put gerbils in their eyes. I always thought they stuck it somewhere else...
