Well, Monkey Pox is here to stay according to the news. Yet another disease that we have to deal with. People aren't even out of COVID-19 yet, and now we gotta deal with this. The one good thing is that they actually have the vaccine for this one though.
Thank you for sharing this, and I have to put my cent in sending this because I think the title of the actual disease in itself is derogatory in itself. A number of African nations have considered calling this disease very derogatory and racist in its own way. Because if this is derived in Africa, why should they consider calling it monkeypox? They could have given in a prefix or a number code just like covid-19. Instead they called it monkey pox for the sake of well the linking of 1 African continent. What are your thoughts?

Yeah. I don't agree with the name either. The countries that it has spread in, are all European countries.
