    Well this takes close contact so it should not be the issue that Covid is because I am not about to embark on a campaign to make love across the Australian continent………………….on second thoughts :p

    Exactly. I haven't seen anything indicating it's airborne, which hopefully means that with sensible precautions it's avoidable. It looks really painful.

    So now you're denying the riots actually existed?
    When your 23 Democrat governors refused to call in the National Guard, the Feds started taking out the instigators.
    What they should have done was put snipers on top of buildings instead of allowing these entitled lefties to kill Americans and cops at will.
    Thats what happens when loony leftist idiot Governors allow loony leftist rioters to take over cities with no response.
    Does Seattle ring any bells?
    Thats how people start picking up firearms to defend their property and when one of your pedophile junkie lefties gets killed,
    the left tries to make a martyr out of them.
    Does Rittenhouse ring any bells?

    There are three levels of infectious disease precautions Contact, Droplet and Airborne. Each one takes a different level of precautions - usually with contact (otherwise known as “standard” precautions) it is just “wear gloves and avoid bodily fluids” droplet “wear any sort of mask really and cover your mouth when coughing and sneezing, airborne is of course what we faced with Covid (although some experts leaned toward droplet). There is no doubt there are more infectious diseases out there than COVID. Measles for one.

    There is a final level of infection control which is OMG! - BREAK OUT THE HAZMATS! Which is where we were with Ebola and it was not because Ebola was more infectious - it isn’t it is because Ebola has a horrific mortality rate

    My only issue with this video is that in many places contact precautions are now considered standard

    This virus has a 10% death rate. THAT is justification for the stupidity that you folks put us through with a virus with a less than 1% death ratio.

    Hey it’s the sequel to the AIDS epidemic! Except this time the GOP will do something about it. Right?

    Just wrap it and keep it wrapped.

    Or the homosexuals could stop spreading their disgusting diseases to all the normal people. That would be a good start.

    Ah yes, sexual bigotry justifying the spread of the disease to a certain segment of the population. God I always wanted to know what the 80s were like.

    It was a time of horrific attacks on people who were in any way “different” whatever that is supposed to mean

    The thing about it being homosexual disease is hogwash. It has been endemic in Africa for decades mostly as zoonotic transmission

    There’s not a million dead from COVID in America Jesus Christ lol

    There’s a million dead because we don’t confirm Covid cases before we count them as Covid deaths. But keep up your fear mongering. It’s helped your party a ton lol

    Are you referring to when the homosexuals violently attacked the psychologists voting to remove homosexuality from the DSM? You know when they curb stomped them on the street, threw vomit, feces and urine at them, threatened their lives and their wife’s and childrens lives and firebombed their cars to force them to vote the way they wanted?

    the american indians were not decimated by raping them, but by giving them smallpox infected blankets. poxes are spread by contact, not necessarily intimate contact.

    anyone who fas this disease, and any persons or things that they contact, MUST be isolated for an appropriate period of time. smallpox boosters are required and many of our younger citizens have not been vaccinated for smallpox.

    does government have a role? or would you depend on the voluntary maturity of the american people?

    Here in the United States of America the number of confirmed cases of the Monkeypox virus is yet so small that tracing and quarantine procedures are possible. The ability to establish procedures to control the influx of new cases is unknown to this poor old country mouse. Also unknown to me is the political will to do so.

    Regards, stay safe 'n well 'n remember the Big 5.

    Agreed. Anyone who has it should be locked up.

    As I said during Covid. A less than 1% death rate does not justify the measures they were taking. I EXPLICITLY said that a 10% death rate or higher WOULD require those measures.

    Nope. The Dems will downplay it because they can’t blame this one on Trump. A new virus will fall squarely at their feet and they won’t acknowledge it’s severity until they have to.

    Watch what I say.

    Especially because they created a GROSS overreaction to a virus with a minuscule death rate. Now they’re facing a virus with a 10% death rate which DESERVES the level of fear that they pushed on the populous with a virus thats comparable to the flu. What do they do this time?

    my searches are not turning up this information. homosexuality was removed from the dsm in 1973, when the only organized homosexuals were "queers for mcgovern" (organized by roger stone as a nixon dirty trick. )
