Monkeypox Primarily Affects Gay Men. Why Are We Scared to Say It?

Monkeypox

  • Experts say the number of monkeypox cases is severely undercounted, and the World Health Organization just declared the disease a global health emergency
  • 98% of those infected around the world were gay or bisexual men who were having sex with other men
  • The messaging strategy surrounding monkeypox has sought to obfuscate this fact
  • Public health officials couch their language by citing a nonexistent stigma against gay men as the reason
  • It's time to stop beating around the bush when it comes to public health. Dire ramifications arise when politics seep into health care.

Monkeypox

  • If public health officials won't say it, then we should
  • Monkeypox poses the greatest threat to gay men. Ignoring that fact is bananas

    1. “For men who have sex with men, this includes for the moment, reducing your number of sexual partners, reconsidering considering sex with new partners, and exchanging contact details with any new partners to enable follow up if needed,” the World Health Organization’s director-general said.
    2. World Health Organization chief and leftist hack Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said: “The stigma and discrimination can be as dangerous as any virus and can fuel the outbreak.
    3. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization may think they’re being kind by ignoring the big gay elephant in the room.
    4. It’s unacceptable after public health officials used government to force individuals the world over to lock down, mask up, and get vaccinated against their will.
