“It’s clear the window of opportunity for doing so is closing,” added Rimo, a member of the WHO expert committee on monkeypox that met last week to determine whetherA majority of committee members voted against the move and, in an unprecedented step, WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus declared an emergency anyway.

Jimmy Whitworth, a professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said he expected that cases would not plateau for at least the next four-to-six months, or until those at highest risk of infection have been either vaccinated or infected. Sexual health organizations in the UK recently estimated that could be around 125 000 people.

“I remember clearly … saying that ‘I think I’m going to die,’ because I can’t eat, I can’t drink. I can’t even swallow my own spit,” said Harun Tulunay, 35, a sexual health advocate who was hospitalized with monkeypox in London earlier this month but has since recovered.While monkeypox is not causing large numbers of deaths globally, an unpleasant virus establishing itself in new populations is still bad news, scientists said.

FACT CHECK - This is either AUTOIMMUNE BLISTERING DISEASE OR SHINGLES and NOT monkeypox. This is a ploy to sweep jab damage under the carpet under the guise of alleged monkeypox! Read Pfizers safety data and adverse reactions pages its all there for people to read!!

They failed us on Covid and now this. They are quick to speak and runt when the origins are of African and slow to act when it's their top members.

Scare tactics. Don't propagate fear. Trust in God so that death has no sting.
