Title: Here we go. WHO declares monkeypox a global health emergency
Post by: -gg- on July 23, 2022, 12:06:00 PM
Great.
A young child and a parent have just tested positive here in Los Angeles. They say transmission is through close bodily contact- touching the sores, bodily fluids, and also through droplets form breathing or sneezing/coughing but only at short distances.
I wonder if they've learned from the Covid misinformation that happened along the way and will be more accurate in dealing with this one?
This stuff may not kill many people, but this is nasty.
They sure wont point a finger and shame the ones spreading the monkey disease like they did with people and the wuhan flu
That's right!
lol

what I'm talking about is the string of misinformation that went out along the way.
They first said it was not transmissible, then told us masks do more damage than good so don't wear one. A bunch of stuff that anyone who has any kind of memory should remember.
They said that the vaccine was 99 percent effective and that we would not get covid if we were vaccinated. Then "breakthrough" cases were very rare.
Now we know that none of that was true. I hope they do a better job with this one.

He told us that we should not be walking around wearing masks.
Then he switched to requiring masks - and THEN said it was "common sense" to wear two masks.
You guys can ignore history if you want, but I'm not. People, governments and officials flat out lied to us many times regarding Covid. There's no reason for me to suddenly trust them.

dude or dude the. not many people knew what to do with covid. as more data came in you adjust. were mistakes done at the beginning, absolutely, but as more info was available then things get adjusted. that's what happened.
when my wife got sick in December 2020. data had already came in that horse manure didn't work, a few other meds either didn't work or had little effect.
her doctor who knew her for years was frustrated, he didn't know what to do. I could tell in his voice. he said we cutting body parts and we don't know why it happened. he called a brain surgeon because of my wife's mental status and he did an mri actually one also this January. both normal. but they couldn't tell why she her brain was affected. my doctor who also saw her says that he's got other patients and he doesn't know what to do.
we think the covid is over or at least I try to think but the effects from it will be around for decades.
all I can do is get vaccinated I knew from the first shot that I can still get it. but my chances of ending up in a hospital are less. I knew that from when I took the first shot.

Fauci said that he lied about masks - to prevent people from buying them. They even call it "the noble lie" LOL.
So now I'm supposed to trust that he or anyone else is not telling me a "noble" lie? Not me
Arlo - it would be great if you either added something or just stay out. I think you're a worthless, busybody and ignorant fool - but I know some people might somehow enjoy your henpecking BS.

I would like to add also that everything we were told was presented to us as fact. I'm more than fine with them not knowing or saying that this is precautionary or that they just don't know but they think this or that. But what they did was actually lie about things. They told us it was 99% effective without having any studies done. Now we know that that's completely not true. So many things we know now that we're actually completely false they presented as fact.
I'm glad I never took the vaccine because now there are things coming out with immune disorders caused by that vaccine. And they also are showing studies that people who have been vaccinated, and especially multiple times, are actually more susceptible to getting covid and other diseases now.

please do compare fauci to your orange idol, it's only one person, it will dissappear in the spring, use clorox, have a bright light it's a conspiracy to make me look bad, stop testing numbers will go down, use horse manure, after the 2020 election it will dissappear. due to my leadership we got a vaccine in 8 months, wait my vaccine doesn't work.
should I go on? not even gonna include fox who required vaccine but their 2 main show guys were against it, while themselves being vaccinated.
oh it's a demon vas because it has luciferin while not knowing what it is. it has a tracker, unlike your phone. it can make you magnetic, like any kid doesn't know you lick a spoon, it sticks to your nose.

I'm not trolling and I'm having a civil discussion. The subject is monkey pox, and the original post has to do with monkey pox being declared a global health emergency.
Arlo, as usual you are adding nothing and just being a forum busy body. You poke your head into everybody's business and you can't help yourself. Why don't you stop derailing threads with your nonsense?
You should either contribute and stay on subject or go find another place to post.
Semp, we have differences of opinion and that's all there is about it. No need to keep going over everything. It's not a political discussion for me. It's just a matter of facts and how they were presented. I don't trust the government as much as you do perhaps, but that's not of my business..

well the way you posted as misinformation from only one guy, it turns political. have you said misinformation at the beginning but then it was corrected then it would be different.
who knows what this new thing is gonna do. at the beginning of covid I rolled my eyes when they said perhaps 100k dead. now I just wait and pray. that's all I can do.

Canada did a much better job at controlling covid > masking and vaccinations were a big part of that.
Lol sure sure.
Overall, population density in Canada in 2021 is 3.92 peopler per km2 or 10.2 people per square mile. This makes Canada the 10th least densely populated country in the world.
Population density (people per sq. km of land area) in United States was reported at 36.28 sq. Km in 2021.
^ But nahh that wasn’t a factor.
After the 5th largest city, Edmonton, we have suburbs of cities with larger populations than the all the remaining cities.

I'm not sure that's a fair comparison. Most of Canada is not populated. Most people live very close to the border and in cities I think.

Men, don't have sex with men for two weeks to stop the spread.
OK in two weeks we'll reassess...
It seems like keeping yourself and your children away from promiscuous gay men would suffice in this global health emergency.
Title: Re: Here we go. WHO declares monkeypox a global health emergency
Post by: -gg- on July 23, 2022, 10:43:33 PM
It's being spread otherwise. A child just got in in Los Angeles. A toddler
Both children had contact with gay men according to the story I saw. It's not a problem for most people. If you're in a high risk group it's a little different but it's still easy to avoid.
Title: Re: Here we go. WHO declares monkeypox a global health emergency
Post by: -gg- on July 23, 2022, 11:23:58 PM
Sure thing, Dr FLS.
Why does it matter if the toddler had contact with a gay man or any other person that was infected with monkeypox? The fact is that the toddler got it somehow right?
It's Spreading around the world somehow. It may have originated with gay men and they may be the highest risk group but you can get up by touching somebody who has it or inhaling their droplets or any close contact with them.
Title: Re: Here we go. WHO declares monkeypox a global health emergency
Post by: -gg- on July 23, 2022, 11:28:03 PM
Officials have said the virus can spread through close personal contact, and via towels and bedding. That means it can happen in homes, likely through prolonged or intensive contact, said Dr. James Lawler, an infectious disease specialist at the University of Nebraska Medical Center.
"People don't crawl on each other's beds unless they are living in the same house or family," he said.
This stuff can spread to innocent people. And it is spreading. Maybe it doesn't spread easily, but I don't like the fact that people are carrying this crap around and that you could pick it up by touching something that they handled. Or by inhaling their droplets.
In Europe, there have been at least six monkeypox cases among kids 17 years old and younger.
This week, doctors in the Netherlands published a report of a boy who was seen at an Amsterdam hospital with about 20 red-brown bumps scattered across his body. It was monkeypox, and doctors said they could not determine how he got it.
In Africa, monkeypox infections in children have been more common, and doctors have noted higher proportions of severe cases and deaths in young children.

I called somebody a clown once. She was in a little car full of balloons, literally full of balloons, wearing a clown suit, wig, and clown makeup. I was on my bike and she cut me off. Probably didn't see me because of all the balloons. I caught up to her and called her a clown. She seemed oddly upset by my validation.

I wonder which large monkey colony caged in the Belgian congo was the source of the pox laden Monkeys sent to the lab in Europe where it was discovered.
1958 is the year the genie came out of the bottle for a lot of monkey viruses making the cross species jump……..and the same group of scientists seem to be involved.

I've read that monkeypox had mostly been seasonal in Africa and limited to rural and remote areas. Speculation was that it was seasonal and spiked off at the time of year people would go into the forests and harvest edible caterpillars. It was never a problem in the populated areas until recently.
They called it monkeypox but it's supposedly mostly carried by rodents.
There have been outbreaks before, but they say this outbreak is unprecedented. Experts are saying that because of how it's spreading, they suspect multiple transmission routes.

Several years ago I had to drive a clown truck.
I was an ATM technician for a small company. One of the owner's mom was an "artist" who had a clown store on the internet. She painted those horrible clown paintings you see... like the sad cowboy clown or the rodeo clown with American flags, etc. Horrible. LOL. I mean she was a good artist but clowns are horrible.
So she had a truck used for her clown store and they gave that to me to drive. It had clowns painted on it. Embarrassing.
