Some U.S. health officials are conceding that monkeypox is probably not going away anytime soon.

The disease’s spread is slowing but the virus is so widespread that elimination is unlikely, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. That conclusion was in a recent CDC report, and echoed Friday by Marc Lipsitch, director of science in the agency's disease-forecasting center.

The virus has mainly spread among gay and bisexual men, though health officials continue to stress that anyone can be infected. It's important that people at risk take steps to prevent spread and that vaccination efforts continue, Lipsitch said. Dr. Tom Inglesby, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, agreed that it's unlikely that spread of monkeypox will stop in the U.S. anytime soon, but he said it's still possible in the long term.

This isn’t news.

You know a sane healthcare System would try to eradicate deadly diseases. But that is clearly not the priority of our healthcare system.

Not in this culture.

Only one demographic should even care. Admit it.

It's not monkeypox it's gay poxes or bisexuality poxes sorry just lying your asses off about out state people ate up Kentuckys is ate up overseas there ate up so nowhere is safe disease everywhere

Yeah, yeah, yeah, and no matter how much you try to scare me I am not getting a damned shot for it.

Yes true, because just like HIV the main reason/activity causing it to be spread will not stop. Find treatment etc like HIV. That's the answer.

That's terrifying. Considering there's been one death in the US and according to the article I read, the dude was 'severely immunocompromised.'

Just FO already

Money 💰 Pox is a myth

MSM is all about fear, fear and more fear. Gotta get those clicks

It has never been eliminated.

I say lock everything down for 2 weeks to flatten the curve. What could go wrong?

Fortunately it only affects homosexuals

Take away the LBGTQ rights. They’re the primary spreader, as well as mandating it for them.

To people all around the world who are following Iran's current situation. We as protesters on the streets of every city of Iran do not want The Islamic Republic's justice nor mercy. The Islamic Republic is not amendable in any way. We want them gone.Simple as that Mahsa_Amini

Sodom and Gomorrah…..

Still trying to help Big Pharma sell more unnecessary vaccines? Shameless.

Well it's not like they tried all that hard to stop it when they had the chance...

We don't care about monkeypox. Move on. The fear mongering is OVER.

Some Officials Now Say Monkeypox Elimination Unlikely in USSome U.S. health officials are conceding that monkeypox is probably not going away anytime soon. Some U.S. health officials are shutting down funeral homes now. We were endlessly harangued over vaccines, masks, social distancing, & lockdowns despite none of those things making any difference with covid transmission. But apparently it’s too much or too embarrassing to tell gay dudes not to engage in orgies with complete strangers. 🤷🏼‍♂️
