Break outs are a late stage indicator of smallpox, so possible you can get better before that point.

There is no "monkeypox". The problem with calling it smallpox is the only sources would be government labs.

Smallpox has a 30% mortality rate. It's not smallpox.

Most of the population is immune to it anyhow. If you had chickenpox as a kid, you are.

Smallpox was easily spread, this you have to literally rub skin to transmit it.

As I’ve mentioned in other posts on this site, I believe the gay men are the only ones spreading this for these reasons.
1)super promiscuous lifestyle and risky sexual acts
2)high HIV prevalence in gay men and 41% of people who caught monkeypox had HIV.
3)the vax lowers immune readiness and reactivates latent viruses (like HIV) which contributes to immune vulnerability.

Put those three factors together and you explain why it’s practically only gay men who are getting this.

It’s not a risk factor for any other group of people. You are safe from monkeypox if you’re not a gay man. Especially if you’re not HIV positive or have any close contact with gay men.
