I see they've set up a task force in NI too that should be good as our waiting time's 20 years 
Not wanting to turn this into a conspiracy thread but my spidey senses are tingling, first hepatitis in children in mainly western countries, now monkeypox in mainly western countries? also a lot of NATO countries and allies of the USA? suspiciousThe conspiracy theorist in me wonders if Putin let it out as its only in the Western countries so far haha
Seriously though from everything I've seen and read so far there doesn't seem to be too much to worry about at this stage. The media are loving it though, they got a taste of constant crisis since brexit and don't want to let it go.
As someone else said, we all seem perfectly comfortable with awfully high numbers of things like heart disease, cancer, obesity etc. But something like this causes panic stations
Bio weapons are like an undetected nuclear bomb .Not wanting to turn this into a conspiracy thread but my spidey senses are tingling, first hepatitis in children in mainly western countries, now monkeypox in mainly western countries? also a lot of NATO countries and allies of the USA? suspicious
But anyway, lethargy comes over me every time I read about monkeypox…literally cannot take anymore and my brain knows it![]()
The real conspiracy theorists wouldn't be there fighting for that last bag of pasta.Time to dust off the DIY hazmat suit! Now with added shinpads and hard-hat for extra assertiveness, a winning edge when going for that last bag of pasta.
Yea and even those who do get it it’s a mild illness. If only the media would stop the fear mongering agenda. They get a thrill out of it though don’t they! Soon they’ll be encouraging everyone to get the vaccine! Watch this spaceYou need to have very close contact with someone to get it, so the risk is pretty low.
I don’t think we get more cases, but one of the vanishingly few things we do well in the UK is track and report diseases. We probably have no more cases than other countries but we’re just picking them up more efficiently.Why does UK always get so many cases of these viruses and diseases? Covid, we get it bad, monkeypox, we seem to have more cases than most - again!
Would they be better able to cope with it as they're exposed to it more than the EU countries ,would they have a level of immunity ?As it’s usually more common in africa. The death stats would also reflect those countries where the healthcare may not be on the same level as us.
Actually I think you’re right. Most doctors wouldn’t really recognize diseases more specific to other countries and super rare in ours. I remember reading an article about one of the MMR ones as - the doc hadn’t seen a single case before so had no clue.Would they be better able to cope with it as they're exposed to it more than the EU countries ,would they have a level of immunity ?
