Never in my wildest imagination did I think people throughout the world could be so easily duped.
I'm sure Governments around the world will use this new manufactured crisis to implement additional restrictions and laws.

I’m not so sure; even though the government and democRAT state officials are announcing “health emergencies”, they are admitting that the fatality rate is ridiculously low. Almost non-existent. My personal belief is that they are using the vector the disease is following with the most prevalence (ie- the homosexual community) to stigma-scare people into vaccination, lockdown, and therefore open the door to voter fraud. Given that people are ignoring the Covid fear mongering at this point, I see the population basically giving the “authorities” the middle finger at such draconian measures anymore. Nobody is getting Covid “vaccines” anymore except the truly mindless sheep that live in fear and OBEY the .gov.

As I’ve mentioned, at my retirement job at an outdoor recreation company, almost NOBODY is masking, social distancing, or showing signs that cramming together in crowds, buses, etc makes them the slightest bit uncomfortable. The same applies to sporting events, grocery stores, or anywhere else people have to wait in lines. In the places that still have those silly tapes off 6’ blocks to stand in, people stand in line within arms reach of each other without fear. I am truly glad to see it.

I hope this remains the case. The number of reported cases are exploding according to TASS major news outlets. Deaths are being reports all over the world now. It will be interesting to see how they pad the numbers like they did with Covid.

The figure of confirmed deaths stands at 10 globally. That is not what I consider adequate to begin scare mongering in the US where there are about 7000 confirmed cases with ZERO deaths.

We went from 1st monkeypox case in US this year reported in Massachusetts back in the middle of May to 7500 + in a relatively short order. Government and news outlets will attempt to scare everyone into getting another vaccine. Roll Eyes

New York is one of the hotspots for that kind of thing.

It seems to result from a combination of an insular community with a lot of anti-vaccination members (the Orthodox Jews) and a broader smattering of anti-vaxxers through the general population.

Measles was declared “eliminated” in the US in 2000. In 2019, there were more cases than any year since 1992, and three quarters of the cases were in New York, mostly centering around schools and communities where the child MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccination rate was between 50% and 75%.

There are people entering this country ilegally, who have not had the polio vaccine. That is why this is popping up.

The next thing you know, they'll have an outbreak of cholera in that cesspool called NYC.

1000%

You only see see this crap in places today like Somalia, and other world backwaters.

New York City has its own culture problems in the city. My son lived in Queens and worked in Manhattan for many years. Ran a cigar store in Brooklyn for a bit. Unbelievable stories re: race, culture, riots … luckily he moved back here.

That’s certainly one way, but it isn’t the only one.

The big 2019 measles outbreak in New York (there were a couple of others with different sources) was tracked to an unvaccinated New Yorker kid who came back from a trip to Israel with measles.

The possibility of importing “eradicated” diseases like that can be reduced, but not eliminated. When they’re imported into mostly-vaccinated communities, they just fizzle out and don’t go anywhere.

Despite being declared “eradicated” in the US in 2000, there have been at least a few measles cases - usually a few dozen - every year since then, but they mostly don’t go anywhere because we mostly have high MMR vaccination rates.

Similarly, the US was declared polio-free in 1979, but there were cases every year through 1999, and a few scattered cases since then. The decline in cases from 1979 to 1999, and rarity of cases since then, is not because of anything being done in the US, which had near-perfect polio vaccination rates over that period. Worldwide progress in eliminating polio has reduced the number of infected people entering the US (whether foreign nationals or US citizens catching it during international travel).

"WHO stresses monkeypox surge not linked to monkeys amid attack reports"

https://www.theguardian.com/wo...nkeypox-world-health

The World Health Organization has stressed that monkeypox outbreaks are not linked to monkeys, following a number of reported attacks on the primates in Brazil.

“What people need to know is that the transmission we are seeing is happening between humans,” a WHO spokesperson, Margaret Harris, told reporters in Geneva on Tuesday.

She said the primates could not be blamed for the surge in monkeypox cases in Brazil after reports in a number of cities of physical attacks on and poisonings of monkeys.

In a natural reserve in Rio Preto, São Paulo state, 10 monkeys appeared to have been poisoned or intentionally injured in less than a week, according to the news site G1. Rescuers and activists suspect the monkeys were poisoned and attacked after three monkeypox cases were confirmed in the area.

Globally, more than 28,100 cases and 12 deaths have been recorded, as monkeypox infections have risen since May outside the west and central African countries where the disease has long been endemic.

To date, Brazil has registered more than 1,700 cases and one death, according to WHO data.

But Harris underlined that despite its name, monkeys are not the main transmitters of the disease and have nothing to do with the outbreak. Monkeypox received its name because the virus was first identified in monkeys kept for research in Denmark, but the disease is found in a number of animals, and most frequently in rodents.

While the virus could jump from animals to humans, the recent global explosion of cases was due to close-contact transmission between humans, Harris said. “The concern should be about where it [is circulating] in the human population and what humans can do to protect themselves from getting it and transmitting it,” she said. People “should certainly not be attacking any animals”.

Harris said the best way to rein in the virus was “if people recognise they have symptoms and go get help and medical care and take precautions to prevent it being transmitted”. That requires raising awareness among those most at risk.

Nearly all the cases so far have been among men who have sex with men, and the WHO has cautioned against stigmatisation of those infected.

How long will it be before Fauci announces new variants of monkeypox that are more deadly and transmissible?

WHO to rename monkeypox to avoid discrimination and stigmatization

The World Health Organization says it’s holding an open forum to rename monkeypox, after some critics raised concerns the name could be considered discriminatory and stigmatizing.

WHO said the decision was made after meeting with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), which helps identify best practices for naming new human diseases to "avoid causing offense to any cultural, social, national, regional, professional, or ethnic groups, and minimize any negative impact on trade, travel, tourism or animal welfare."
