  2. Irresponsible idiot!
    Not clased as an std because it isn't one!

    He's sayin you can get it from hugging but not close contact on transport
    How does that make sense
    Friends/ family sit close together skin touching or if your on crowded transport
    Maybe he's forgotten what that's like!
    Can be caught through linen and clothes

    I don't want to stigmatize but…

    So damn irresponsible

  3. Let's see the racial breakdown of the cases because you pathological liars are not capable of telling the truth. Most of the affected that I've seen are white males. What do your stats say about that?

  4. Mostly gotten by sexual contact and mainly through those of the LGBTQ community. Do not belittle this, not because of stigma, but so they can be more aware and not mess with loose as partners. They matter too.

  5. These comments! Lol. Im 52 and Gay. Ive never had a sexually transmitted disease. People dont get monkey pox from having anal or oral sex. They get it from being sexully promiscuous.

  6. Facts:
    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has found that 73 percent of men who have contracted monkeypox report having between two and 10 sexual partners over the three weeks before symptom onset, according to a report Friday in The Wall Street Journal.

    Of these men, nearly 20 percent reported 10 or more sexual partners in this time period.
    According to the CDC report, of all the monkeypox patients in the United States, 99 percent are men, and 96 percent are gay men.
