Is coming to a crowded environment near you soon.
Supposedly this one shouldn't be anything like as bad as COVID, but a suggested 21 day isolation time for coming into a contact with a confirmed case did make me lol.
Pandemics, like buses eh?

The phrase "coming into contact" sounds like it has a higher threshold for this one.
So are all of these cases in London or what?
The Conspiracy Theorists must absolutely love it.
Unless we all start having massive nationwide orgies and sharing our bodily fluids then we should be fine with this one.
BoJo should get it quite quickly then.
I was going to create this thread earlier. Back to work after 3 weeks off today and had loads of emails about it.

Luckily we have a vaccine and most of us aren't randomly shagging people. Rip to Igor.
The euphemisms around 'adult saunas' and the like to avoid blaming it on gay men take you back a couple of years. No, actually. If you see a Chinaman give him a big squeeze.
The bbc talks about the gay, bisexual and men who have sex with other men community.
I dont quite understand the end of the sentence.
Is that a polite way of not outing gay people in an article?
Something to do with the Trans Community probably.
My wife used to work with a Trans person. They identified as a she, put still had a penis. Their girlfriend stayed with them after they came out as Trans, so I suppose overnight they went from having straight sex, to having lesbian sex, despite a penis and vagina still being involved.

There are lots of straight men who have sex with men. It comes up a lot in HIV.
So is having sex with trans okay? Coincidentally I did have a cracking wank to some TS material the other day.
Any chance of WFH? Knowing London, I am hopeful.
Given the affected groups I am surprised Baz isn't Monkeypox Champion.

They should just say 'anal sex', but there's probably a law against that because most of our laws still think it's 1971.
The whole thing is just weird. It seems to be massively widespread, yet the case numbers are pretty tiny.
I think we're basically in - a much less scary version of - the early days of HIV. They don't have a clue what's happening.
Close contact, anal sex and bodily fluids are not exclusive to gay men, so why does it discriminate? I can only assume the 'right' slutty bisexual hasn't caught it yet?
I'll never forget being lectured on fisting - with appropriate and enthusiastic hand/arm actions when someone asked for clarification - by a tiny, octogenarian, Indian GU consultant at Med school.

As if 'GBMSM' is an actual thing, and lol at a government briefing mentioning half of that. Anyway, gay disease CONFIRMED. Stand down.One hundred and fifty-two cases participated in more detailed questionnaires, implemented from 26 May 2022, and used retrospectively. In this data, 151 of the 152 men interviewed identified as gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (GBMSM)... Nearly all (98%) of interviewed cases reported sex with other men during the incubation period (5 to 21 days). The majority (60%, 27 out of 45) were diagnosed with an STI in the previous year, 44% (20 out of 45) reported more than 10 sexual partners in the previous 3 months, and 44% (20 out of 45) reported group sex during the incubation period...
Traditional contact tracing as a primary control intervention in this specific group will be challenging as most cases reported having sexual contact with new or casual partners, sometimes in the context of cruising grounds or during chemsex, frequently where contact details were unavailable for tracing... Of those interviewed, 44% (20 out of 45) reported attending sex-on-premises venues in the UK or abroad during the incubation period, such as saunas, dark rooms, or sex clubs. Therefore, collaborating with sex-on-premises venues to implement targeted interventions would support outbreak control. A minority of cases reported sexual activity in international festivals or events. However, 36% (16 out of 45) did not report attending any sex-on-premises venues, festivals or events in the 3 weeks before symptom onset, suggesting the need for wider interventions that reach all GBMSM in these sexual networks.
What is chemsex? @phonics
Yeah, I never understood the gays going mad on poppers to get the job done. At that point, do you even like sex to begin with? Just cuddle.
How will we cope.
Classic establishment gammon behaviour to dismiss the two spirits.
It's another plot by big pharma funded by the foundering gay community.

It's basically AIDS by this point.In response to the current incident UKHSA and NHS England are developing a monkeypox pre-exposure vaccination programme.

Variant.
Drink!
Due to the nature of my job, I've been sent a list of all the gay saunas in the north west, if anyone wants a copy?

Officially a global health EMERGENCY.
A bit mental seeing as it's only killed 5 in 16,000+ cases.
They probably did shit like this all the time before Covid too but nobody paid attention then.
The six month lockdown begins November with a Liz Truss press conference about stigmatising homosexuals being the real public health crisis.
'I think Patrick and Chris will both agree that we will never know for certain how it spread to children, but what we don't want to do is...'
This has arrived in St. Helens.

Another outbreak survived.
