Biden admin expected to name monkeypox coordinator, as virus becomes US, global health concern

Some officials are questioning whether an emergency should be declared for a virus that has yet to kill a single American

The Biden administration reportedly plans to name a monkeypox coordinator, as the virus continues to spread across the U.S. and grows into a global public health emergency.

The plan was first reported by The Washington Post, based on information from unnamed sources.

The administration is still debating whether to declare the virus a public health emergency, amid over 3,400 confirmed cases across the United States.

Over 18,000 cases of monkeypox have been reported worldwide, with the U.S. having the highest number, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The naming of a monkeypox coordinator – or "czar" – would follow the World Health Organization on Saturday declaring the virus outbreak a global public health emergency.

The United Nation-led group says 98% of those infected are "men who have sex with men."

Some U.S. health officials say that declaring monkeypox a public health emergency will result in a more effective response, which would include prevention and treatment, while other the move would largely be symbolic and ineffective.

Other officials are questioning whether a public health emergency should be declared for a virus that has yet to kill a single American and only affects a small demographic.

The emergency declaration would be made this week and tied to an announcement about the distribution of 800,000 vaccines, authorities stated.

I guess the clown Biden has determined that there aren’t enough monkeypox infections.

Buttigeig has been a colossal failure at transportation, maybe they should move him to a department that he knows something about.

He’s most likely the Dem nominee for POTUS in 2024.
You can’t replace Kamala with a straight white guy without enraging the faithful, so Booty-Gig is the obvious choice.

VAERS says the Wuhan vaccine has killed nearly 30,000. When will that be acknowledged by Brandon?

Going to be interesting to see how the regime tries to paper over the fact that this is basically a promiscuous anal sex (gay) disease. I wonder who will be the celebrity athlete will be this time a la Magic Johnson who’ll be used to tell us “if so-and-so can get it, anyone can get it!”

>> Isn’t this primarily spread by gay sex so far? <<

Yup. But there IS a problem with a RELATIVELY non-lethal smallpox variant being left to mutate, exchange technology and fester in a population of people who frequently have compromised immune systems.

NOt sure I buy zero deaths either. Not one of the infected had AIDS and was infected bad enough to finish him off? Or are we doing the opposite we did with Coronavirus and not counting it as killed by monkeypox unless there are no pre-existing conditions?

Kinda amazing if the Dems go with a guy whose name is pronounced, “Bootie judge.”

Let’s get Kamala right on it! She’s doing such a great job on everything else. Should be able to handle this easily.

A public health emergency or a man-on-man, 1.5% of the population catastrophe...

It’s the bath house anal injection (or what the CDC would reclassify it as a “vaccine”) which gives you FagFlu.

Well, in fairness, it is spreading. It’s not just man-on-man deviant sex, it’s now moved on to affect some “adjacent” children.

I’m just wondering if they will appoint a black person....that may not go over so well.
