Monkeypox is causing devastating outcomes for people with severely weakened immune systems, even as new cases continue to decline in the United States, according to a federal report released Wednesday. At least 10 people hospitalized with monkeypox have died. 
More than 28,000 cases of monkeypox have been reported since the U.S. outbreak began in May. While the vast majority recover within weeks, some patients with untreated HIV experienced especially dire consequences, such as losing function of their brain or spinal cord, eyes and lungs despite being given antiviral medication.

    "A Black man in his 30s with AIDS, who was not receiving treatment, developed a rash on his face, head, back and genitals in July." 
So, he had full blown AIDS and yet contracted monkeypox, meaning he recklessly and wantonly exposes someone else to a deadly disease. Does anyone care?

    Imagine someone with COVID, knowing full well they have COVID, kisses someone repeatedly and for prolonged periods without telling that person. What would happen to that COVID-infected cretin?

    Then why aren’t poofters dropping dead like flies? They're dying quicker than you are allowed to know about.

    I’m surprised that the Washington Pravda used the term “monkeypox”. I thought that was way too accurate and politically incorrect for them to use.

Weak immune systems like the brain-dead zombie lemmings who have all their “vaccines” up to date?
