AP: The head of the World Health Organization on Wednesday advised men at risk of catching monkeypox to consider reducing their sexual partners “for the moment” following the U.N. health agency declaring the escalating outbreaks in multiple countries to be a global emergency.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said 98% of the monkeypox cases detected since the outbreaks emerged in May have been among gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men. He called for those at risk to take steps to protect themselves.

“That means making safe choices for yourself and others, for men who have sex with men,” Tedros said. “This includes, for the moment, reducing your number of sexual partners.”

Infectious individuals should isolate and avoid gatherings involving close, physical contact, while people should get contact details for any new sexual partners in case they need to follow up later, the WHO chief said.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has not suggested that men who have sex with men reduce their sexual partners, only that they avoid skin-to-skin contact with people who have a rash that could be monkeypox.

WHO officials emphasized that monkeypox can infect anyone in close contact with a patient or their contaminated clothing or bedsheets. The U.N. health agency has warned that the disease could be more severe in vulnerable populations like children or pregnant women.

To date, more than 19,000 cases have been reported in more than 75 countries; deaths have only been reported in Africa.

“We know very clearly that one of the main modes of exposure for this particular illness is through direct contact, close contact, skin to skin contact, possibly even face to face contact, exposure to droplets or virus that may be in the mouth,” Dr. Rosamund Lewis, WHO’s technical lead for monkeypox, said.

Andy Seale, a WHO adviser on HIV, hepatitis and sexually transmitted infections, said experts have determined the current monkeypox outbreak is “clearly transmitted during sex,” but he said they have not yet concluded whether it’s a sexually transmitted infection.

Dr. Hugh Adler, who treats monkeypox patients in the U.K., said monkeypox was being transmitted during sex and that sexual networks and anonymous sex with untraceable partners were facilitating its spread.

“It’s just as likely that monkeypox was always capable of transmitting and presenting like this, but it hadn’t been formally reported or so widespread before,” he said.

Last week, British authorities issued new guidance advising doctors that people with just one or two lesions might be infectious with monkeypox, potentially complicating efforts to stop transmission.

  1. Rock stone, 🪨 foot-bottom, 🦶 ah wha ya say Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus?

    WE’RE DOOMED I TELL YA … DOOMED!!!

  3. “WHO recommends GAY and BISEXUAL MEN limit sexual partners to reduce the spread of monkeypox”

    -Men who have sex with men are at the highest risk of infection right now from monkeypox, according to the WHO.

    -About 99% of cases are among men, and at least 95% of those patients are men who have sex with other men, according to WHO official Rosamund Lewis.

    • We should all be concerned about the bisexual men and those on the down low, who might catch this and take it home to their wives and girlfriends.

    “Died Unexpectedly” Propaganda, Russia is Winning, Biden Recession
    By Greg Hunter On July 29, 2022 In Weekly News Wrap-Ups

    “Died Unexpectedly” is fast becoming the new term to try and cover up all the deaths from the bioweapon “vaccines.” Now, bloggers are keeping track of stories where deaths are unexplained, mysterious or simply died without any reason whatsoever each and every week. This “died unexpectedly” phenomenon is being called a propaganda campaign by legacy media to cover up the alarming deaths that many think are coming from the vaxed, such as three perfectly healthy Canadian doctors who dropped dead one week after the hospital they worked at required a fourth CV19 injection. The hospital denied the shots had anything to do with the “unexpected deaths.” No way they can keep this propaganda up as we are just getting started with the vax injection carnage. According to one top UK Doctor, “Everybody who has an mRNA injection will die in 3 to 5 years even if they have had only one injection.” Could Ivermectin be the drug that buys years of time when taken routinely?

    Russia is turning up the heat in Ukraine and turning off the natural gas to Europe. Fresh attacks are happing around Kyiv as the war grinds on and Ukraine’s army gets decimated. Forget the propaganda where you are told Russia is losing. It’s not. Russia is winning. Ukraine is having their tails handed to them. Meanwhile, the gas is being cut back to 20% of capacity in the Nord Stream #1 pipeline by Russia. They say it’s maintenance, but no matter what you call it, it’s killing off business in Germany and Europe, and it’s not even winter yet. Europe has taken poison and is expecting Russia to die. Can EU banks stay solvent if many cannot pay their loans back?

    The Biden/Obama Administration is saying the USA is NOT in recession, but the facts say otherwise. In economic textbooks, two quarters in a row of negative growth is a recession. It was just reported that the second quarter has shown a -.9% downturn in GDP. That spells RECESSION—period the end, and Biden owns it. That did not stop the Fed from raising a key interest rate by .75% to fight inflation. The Fed can either fight inflation and kill the economy or let interest rates remain low and kill the U.S. dollar. It is that simple. It looks like, for now, the dollar lives.

    “90% of the people who died from covid since April 2022 in the UK [and Australia] were jabbed, most of them 3 or 4 times.”

    Additionally:
    Rockefeller’s Plan to Monopolize Medicine, Banking and Food
    Around that same time, the oil cartel also found a way to take over and control the U.S. financial system, through the creation of the Federal Reserve, established in 1913. The Rockefellers have been powerbrokers in the banking industry ever since.

    They also sought to consolidate control over the global food supply, using philanthropy as their cover for the takeover. The Rockefeller Foundation funded the Green Revolution that led to the introduction of petroleum-based agricultural chemicals, which quickly transformed agriculture, both in the U.S. and abroad.

    President Johnson’s “Food for Peace” program actually mandated the use of petroleum-dependent technologies and chemicals by aid recipients, and countries that could not afford it were granted loans from the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.

    The Rockefeller Foundation also funded the “gene revolution” that brought us patentable genetically modified seeds. Today, The Rockefeller Foundation is part of The Great Reset cast, which seeks to gain total control over every person in the world — financially, medically, physically and psychologically.

    Unfortunately, a majority of people are still unaware of The Great Reset and what it actually entails. According to Mattias Desmet, Ph.D., who popularized the concept of “mass formation hypnosis” as an explanation for the insanity we saw during the first two years of the pandemic, an estimated 30% of the population are completely hypnotized and unable to see or accept the truth.

    About 10% never fell for the hypnotic propaganda, while the remainder are basically “fence sitters” who go along to get along. To prevent The Great Reset, it’s crucial to educate these fence sitters so they realize the danger in going along with the official narrative.

    As I note in this interview, several crises are now converging, and all of them are life threatening to some degree, starting with the bioweapon they call the COVID “vaccine.” The COVID shot has already killed hundreds of thousands of people, and more likely millions, and will continue to cause premature death and disability over the next several years.

    We also face supply chain issues, and shortages of food and energy. Maintaining good health will become a primary concern moving forward, as there will be so many added stressors. On top of that, hospitals are also more dangerous than ever.

  8. Health officials giving dunce advice. Someone said recently they must be smoking something. In Antigua we are advised while feting, dancing in the nude , consuming alcoholic beverages to social distance. The head of WHO trying not to upset the gay community send out this dunce advisory. The chief medical officer in Antigua also trying not to upset the government and the revelers went on national TV and talk lots of Dodo.
    I have a question but you all seems so playing up as health officials that I don’t know if the answer will be truthful. I have been fully vaccinated and boosted for the Covid 19 and now I am hearing of new variants that the vaccine pass the vaccine like water. I am hearing about vaccines for monkeypox. Can i still catch the monkeypox after taking the vaccine for it? How long this vaccine last, will I have to take a booster for the monkeypox since I am hearing of monkeypox variant also Please be truthful and if you don’t know just say so.
