We’re not sure what we’re allowed to say or not say about monkeypox. Last month, the CDC issued “safer sex” guidelines for those infected with monkeypox, such as, “Have virtual sex with no in-person contact.” White House Covid Response Coordinator Ashish Jha addressed monkeypox Monday in the White House briefing room and stressed that it’s “really important” not to use this moment “to propagate homophobic or transphobic messaging.” Is that what the science says?
Former Biden White House senior adviser Andy Slavitt seems to disagree with the CDC and says it doesn’t make any sense that reducing sexual activity would reduce the number of monkeypox cases.
Andy Slavitt (@ASlavitt) ~ 1: The myth that sexual activity is the cause of monkeypox & that reducing it is a valid strategy for managing a disease does not, on its face, make any sense.
If this isn’t clear, imagine this being said about you.
No, it's quite clear, Andy ... you're a stooge who can't think his way out of a wet paper bag. Monkeypox IS contracted primarily by sexual activity and 95% or more of the known cases involve homosexual men. Therefore, if you actually want to contain the spread of this disease, any person with an IQ of least 60 (sorry, that leaves you out, Andy) will categorically tell you that the best preventative measure is for fags to keep it in their pants.
But then ...
The Dank Knight (@capeandcowell) ~ The left: Gay sex is not the cause of monkeypox you bigots.
Also the left: You can only get the monkeypox vaccine if you’ve had gay sex.
Absolute science denying clowns.
The New York City Health Department, which wants the WHO to change the name “monkeypox” due to its “painful and racist history,” is giving monkeypox vaccinations. You’re eligible if you are “a gay, bisexual, or other man who has sex with men and/or are transgender, gender non-conforming, or gender non-binary,” over 18, and have had multiple or anonymous sex partners.
Noam Blum (@neontaster) ~ This is worse than if they had just said the offensive thing. Tiptoeing around offense while actually doing the thing you claim you aren't doing in practice is both stigmatizing and further erodes trust in public health.
Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) ~ This reminds me how Dems like Pelosi and health officials all told people to go out and party in Chinatown to fight xenophobia around Covid 19. Next thing we knew 11,000 people were dead and we don't talk about that anymore.
sebastian (@stoicsebastian) ~ Say no to stigma. Yes to monkeypox.
Yep, that's pretty much what ignorant morons like Andy Slavitt are saying, here.
60Ranchero-rusted (@jmathishmc_jeff) ~ The narrative doesn’t have to make sense apparently.
Well, it's a leftist narrative, so ... by definition ... it's not going to make any sense.
Jacktogon (@jacktogon) ~ I do love that the Left only has 2 responses to a true thing they don’t like:
1. It’s a myth.
2. Actually, that’s racist.
MrsPinky🇺🇸 Nicole Pinkston (@MRSpinkston85) ~ It's the "Don't Say Gay" Vaccine.
Heh heh heh heh heh - good one!
JMB Writesstuff (@WritesstuffJmb) ~ @ASlavitt is a fear-mongering clown who should be held accountable for the damage he did in 2020. Instead, he profits from it.
Fact check: TRUE.
Respect1Another (@AnotherRespect1) ~ @ASlavitt is a 🤡 who should not be taken seriously. Leftist disinformation and propaganda.
Fact check: TRUE.
Was this all OK to discuss? We all know it’s “really important” not to propagate homophobic and transphobic messaging.
