U.S. monkeypox case reported, as Spain, Portugal report infections
The United States confirmed a case of monkeypox infection on Wednesday in a man who recently traveled to Canada. It is not yet clear if the man, who lives in Massachusetts and who traveled to Canada by car, is connected to the growing outbreak of monkeypox cases in Europe.
The case was announced in a statement posted to the website of the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. Confirmatory testing was done by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which had warned earlier Wednesday that cases in this country were likely to begin to be detected.
“Given that we have seen now confirmed cases out of Portugal, suspected cases out of Spain, we’re seeing this expansion of confirmed and suspect cases globally, we have a sense that no one has their arms around this to know how large and expansive it might be. And given how much travel there is between the United States and Europe, I am very confident we’re going to see cases in the United States,” said Jennifer McQuiston, deputy director of the CDC’s division of high consequence pathogens and pathology.
McQuiston said in an email Wednesday that it has not yet been determined if the Massachusetts case was part of the growing European outbreak.
The development adds the United States and possibly Canada to a growing list of countries reporting monkeypox cases in an outbreak first spotted in the United Kingdom. The Public Health Agency of Canada said in a statement late Wednesday that no cases have been reported at this time.
Maria Van Kerkhove, who leads the emerging diseases and zoonoses unit in the World Health Organization’s Health Emergencies Program, said Spain has now confirmed some cases and other countries will join this list.
“We have had positive cases identified in the U.K., Portugal, and Spain. And we expect there will be others,” Van Kerkhove told STAT on Wednesday.

Why do I get that feeling of deja vu?To date, Monkeypox has not been detected within the Philippines or at its borders..... While monkeypox may look like smallpox, it is less contagious and causes less severe illness.![]()
Mukhang iyong mga euro countries na dinagsaan ng mga african refugees ang may initial high incidence ng monkeypox sa western world.

Monkeypox is going to another pandemic disease easily transmitted through s3x but its not going to be limited to non-heteros3xuals. It won't be as contagious like Covid and other dangerous flu viruses but its definitely going to spread like wildfire gradually.
WHO can't seem to get the consensus of various health experts to declare it as a pandemic.
"The Emergency Committee under International Health Regulations, which met Thursday to review the new numbers, did not, however, reach a consensus on announcing a public health emergency.
Yet, WHO made the declaration based on cases being reported from several countries, the meeting of the three criteria for such a declaration (a situation that is serious, sudden, unusual, or unexpected; carries public health implication beyond the border of affected state; and may require immediate international action), and the risk to human health, international spread, and the potential for interference with international traffic."

We have our first recorded case of m.p. Ingat tayo.
PH detects first monkeypox case
That's what I thought too. PH fastest rate of increase in HIV casesNag comment din German boss ko ang daming bakla dito, sa office na lang namin. Though I think PH is one of the best countries to live for gay men, kasi very accepting ang culture natin of gays. Example na lang yung baklang Vice Ganda na masama ugali, namamayagpag sa kasikatan.

moneypox = gay s3x = misinformation
Misinformation has been spreading about monkeypox, including that it is a ***ually transmitted infection (STI).
Monkeypox is not an STI and can spread through skin-to-skin contact between any two or more people.
Health experts say such misinformation can give people a false sense of security, believing they are not at risk.
It can also cause shame, leading some people to avoid seeking necessary treatment.
