I just wish to submit it is unreasonable to have to deal with the outbreak of a rare disease in the middle of an ongoing pandemic of a novel virus which far too many people are treating with pure denial because they got bored with it, thanks. "One expert told Reuters the recent outbreak of monkeypox could be due to increased travel after COVID restrictions dropped." Wheeee.

You have me as the COVID Example and Nicole as WHY YES, IMPOVERISHED/UNTREATED PEOPLE STILL GET MILIARY SCARLET FEVER AND NOW THEIR RESTING HEART RATE IS 107. I think we'll just skip monkeypox and bird flu, keyn ayin hora.

I remember that! Cases in point.

(I think the four-month sinus infection which fucked up my body for life lasted too long to qualify for this conversation.)
