Episode 219 - Monkeypox Declared a Global Public Health Emergency by WHO & More

from Veganish and All Things Healthy · host Freya Magnusson

The WHO just declared Monkeypox a global public health emergency and it is spread by contact, droplet and sexual contact. Two children in the USA contracted the pox by household transmission, a toddler and an infant. Yet providers are denying people Monkeypox vaccines unless they have had direct contact with an infected person and using contact tracing. Gay parents may unknowingly be spreading the pox to their children and each other since symptoms mimic the symptoms of coronavirus. Gay scientists globally need to call for the removal of any barriers to those wanting the vaccine. I recall the breaking news story when Monkeypox first hit and it was unknown which demographic it was affecting. Americans were reassured that a viable smallpox vaccine was available for everyone and not to panic. Yet barriers are continuing to bar access to this vaccine for no known reason. Release the vaccine to all who want it!
