UNAIDS warns that stigmatizing language on Monkeypox jeopardises public health
UNAIDS ^ | May 22, 2022 | Staff

UNAIDS has expressed concern that some public reporting and commentary on Monkeypox has used language and imagery, particularly portrayals of LGBTI and African people, that reinforce homophobic and racist stereotypes and exacerbate stigma. Lessons from the AIDS response show that stigma and blame directed at certain groups of people can rapidly undermine outbreak response.

Thanks in advance.

If they didn’t want it “stigmatized” they could have called it “happy-pox” or “fun-pox.”

Remember how, a few minutes ago, we were stigmatizing anyone and everyone who contracted COVID without the jab? Oh, THOSE people are ok to stigmatize, I guess.

Didn’t take long for this to happen. It was inevitable they would turn this into a privileged disease.


Yep, and before long, we’ll be told that billions will have to be spent in order treat/control/cure this disease which all of us should be fearful of. The fact that the disease is apparently spread by ‘life-style choices’ must not be uttered.

Lessons from the AIDS response show that stigma and blame directed at certain groups of people can rapidly>>> solve the problem. by expanding the so called risk group from gays to everyone Aids was not stopped because gays continued to carry on.

We don’t care if they accuse us of stereotyping because the fact is that mostlg,gay people are the ones getting it, not heterosexual in stable marriages (ie not messing around)

[[They are still trying to push the narrative that gay men as a group are no more promiscuous than heterosexual men]]

Many gay people, around 1/3 almost, have an average of 1000 partners/hookups in their lifetime others have hundreds.

Chickens come from Asia, so chicken pox is out.

The fat, stupid, arrogant martinet woman who worked HR at a place I worked at makes cow pox out, too.
