Popular Post spidermike007 Posted May 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2022 Under 200 cases worldwide. And they are already treating it as the new covid. The new pandemic. Many just do not want to let go of the Zombie panic. Perhaps it gives their lives a purpose. Personally, I prefer harmony and peace over worry and panic. But many don't. Apparently. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why does that make non-hetero partners more at risk than hetero? If they're all having equal amounts of sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminded me of early and mid-90s when my brother and I and, at very most, a handful of others were the only customers in Tilac or Pretty Lady or Rainbow 1. Sometimes we were the only customers. Far outnumbered by the pretty young things (and they all were back then), where as it's been the opposite for the past 2 decades. 10 dudes to every PYT. No skin off my nose if Thailand insists on shooting itself in the foot. Fact is...I prefer it. Open internally, but difficult for tourists to enter = Let the good times roll!!! ???? PLease can you pay compensation for all those who lost their jobs. Hotels, tour business, guides, drivers, airlines, pilots cabin crews, restaurants, service sector etc etc. My staff will love you forever. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're not invested in Big Pharma it's not too late. Buy the dip. If it were the last investment in the world, I would not buy. I despise big Pharma. Would not help or assist or support them on any level. A man has to have some principals in this life. Plenty of other good investments out there, with companies that are not vampirical, and not sucking the blood of humanity.

Popular Post BusyB Posted May 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2022 These 'experts' obviously have no clue that monkeypox is not aerosol spread, but spread by contact with body fluids and secretions, primarily sexually or through families. It has extremely short transmission chains for that reason. OMG! Wearing a mask indeed! Avoid crowded places! Wash your hands! I am utterly speechless at such staggering levels of ignorance and buffoonery. They seem spectacularly incapable of informing themselves or comprehending the information. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been looking at flights etc for later in the year as it all seemed to be going in the right direction. Not coming with mandatory face mask and lots of places closed. This Monkeypox and the seemingly actions suggested mean thats me holding off again. Ohh I have absolutly no issues with justfied controls but these now are just taking the P***.

You're saying that members of the LGBTQ+ community demonstrate a higher incidence of direct contact with other individuals, and....as you intimate they have a higher rate of sexual contact, LGBTQ+ people will experience a higher level of infection rates?

Tracyb Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) 7 minutes ago, Jumbo1968 said: Google monkey pox is more prevalent in LGBTQ+ and you will find the answers there. My question was not related to Monkeypox. It was related to the incidence of close contacts. But while were on the subject here's a quote you might be interested in: "It's also important that this outbreak not cause stigma toward the LGBTQ community, according to the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS. It warned that some reporting and commentary on monkeypox has used language and imagery that reinforce stereotypes and exacerbate stigma. "Experience shows that stigmatizing rhetoric can quickly disable evidence-based response by stoking cycles of fear, driving people away from health services, impeding efforts to identify cases, and encouraging ineffective, punitive measures. We appreciate the LGBTI community for having led the way on raising awareness -- and we reiterate that this disease can affect anyone," UNAIDS Deputy Executive Director Matthew Kavanagh said in a statement Monday. The WHO also cautioned people not to use the disease as a way to negatively label any particular community. "There's a lot of stigma and discrimination that surrounds many diseases, and I think the key thing we need to look out for is, as WHO, to work with our partners in communities and elsewhere to make sure that the messaging is correct. So while we are seeing some cases among men who have sex with men, this is not a gay disease," WHO adviser Andy Seale said Monday."
