Tell the good doctor, that the dirty farang are long beyond the monkey pox.

I - for one - eagerly await the arrival of the worm cough, the flea's foot (smaller version of athlete's foot) and the snail plague. I still have some 37 pages empty in my WHO vaccination booklet and these should be, at least, partly filled with little stamps and signatures. This to the benefit of the Astra-Zeneca's and their competing brethren ????

Dr google is back with a new subject for his wisdom ????

[freedomnow]

No cases 'Yet"

See if I can fix that...inbound from UK.

[huangnon]

Monkey Pox season already??  I've still got my Ukraine decorations up..

[jacko45k]

Quarantine on entry to Thailand no longer required.... HOLD THAT THOUGHT!

[sawadee1947]

I don't know how it is in Thailand but we old farangs we're vaccinated when we we're toddlers.

And with this pox vaccine we are protected perfectly. ????????

Smallpox vaccination is also good for monkeypox. And smallpox vaccination lasts for a lifetime, says the people below.

The fearmongers already ramping up their next show to distract from all they did wrong with our health, economy and financial system:

Covid 2.0.

 

G7 health ministers met this week, doing a “simulation” of “necessary” measures: Monkeypox.

Case No. 1 : someone bitten by a Leopard catching Monkeypox (no joke!)

 

Reminds me of Covid, where they did a similar “simulation” in 2019 for a Corona-virus: “Event 201” … ????

 

At the same time WHO is preparing a legislation, empowering them to overrule any country’s health decisions regarding pandemics…

Finalization planned for May 28th …

[Dials on my Dash]

3, 2, 1 ….. lockdown 2.0 imminent

Don't know or care.  If Covid didn't spook me, Mpox isn't going to keep me up at night.   More worried about getting bit by one, as have about 1000 locally that roam the streets here.

Avoids any confusion of who I'm replying to, or making reference to.  Some folks type faster than me.

It's all a terrible misunderstanding; everyone knows that when they say don't panic it means PANIC !!

Good. Then those of us who were vaccinated during the 1962 Bradford smallpox outbreak should be ok. 

[Blumpie]

WhenThai doctors say not to worry you should be very very very worried.

[balo]
