  Fear, fear, fear! Now that pride month is over, it's safe for monkeypox to spread without the risk of the gay gatherings being blamed for it.

      Wait, it gets better! I just read the article and found this:

      Though anyone can contract monkeypox, in the United States the “main population we’ve seen so far has been in men having sex with men,” FIU’s Marty said. “Not because it’s a sexually transmitted disease, but rather because they’ve been having the kinds of interactions with each other in large party settings. That’s basically a super spreader.”

      Maybe my theory of the pox spread being in coordination with pride month is wrong after all.

    And it will spread... mostly through gay sex, and I suppose some amount of heterosexual sex.

    This is a disease that is difficult to otherwise pass, so I have heard it said.
