The World Health Organization (W.H.O.) announced on Tuesday that it will officially rename the monkeypox to address concerns about the stigma and racism associated with the word.
Monkeypox has thus far infected over 1,600 people in more than two dozen countries, first breaking out in the United States this past May in Massachusetts and possibly having originated in Canada. W.H.O. director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced on Tuesday that the organization will be “working with partners and experts from around the world on changing the name of monkeypox virus, its clades, and the disease it causes.”

All this does is expose them as racist! No normal person associates the name of this virus with an entire race of people!

This is going to be epic. Can't wait for the announcement of the new name.
the organization will be “working with partners and experts from around the world on changing the name of monkeypox virus, its clades, and the disease it causes.”
Geniuses hard at work. Is there nothing a committee can't solve?? Now if only they could play Scrabble.

I have no idea what they could come up with, unless they translate “monkeypox” into its equivalent in Latin or Greek. Many of the names of the various diseases of antiquity had this kind of designation, and have come down to us in the medical literature.
The means of transmission appears to justify classifying this disease as an STD, as it is not known to be transmitted by other means. Maybe “fudgepox”?

A Genome test indicated we share a over 90 percent DNA with apes and gorillas ...and since Africa is involved with that it is now deemed racist.
Facts are facts. It is not surprising that some facial features are similar to gorillas and apes but you dare not say it

“As any other disease, it can occur in any region in the world and afflict anyone, regardless of race or ethnicity,” the group said “As such, we believe that no race or skin complexion should be the face of this disease,” the statement continued.
This article must have escaped from the Bee. When I saw the title, my gut instinct said that it came from there.
Intentional "lab" leak?
