Well just when we have heard enough about viruses and not wishing to hear too much more about the coronavirus it appears we may be on course for a Monkeypox epidemic:

This one gives people horrible looking pox bumps all over like an exceptionally bad case of zits fir weeks. For some people it's also life threatening. I'm pretty sure many of you will have already seen some news reports out as it's been running as a story for a good number of days now. It's basically spreading and seems to be doubling every few days. Originally just thought to mainly effect the hay community it now looks like everyone could potentially be on the radar. Odds are same or similar safety precautions as COVID will likely be the answer. Probably only a matter of time before we all have to start keeping heads down on this one just as it seems that we are only about coming up for air on the Coronavirus.
Anyway, just thought I would do a post on it as it's looking like it could be a big thing soon unfortunately. Doesn't look great for anyone to catch and I can do without looking like a Leper for any FSW. Just seems at the moment viruses are starting to let loose everywhere, not sure why. One wonders if it's nature trying to control human population or sone rogue scientist on the loose. Anyway, possible early heads up on this one.

This Doctor/Medical guy recommends the use of face masks to avoid Monkeypox. I think he is right and I've been keeping up my usual habit of wearing my respirator mask in indoor public spaces. Handy as it protects against both COVID and the Monkeypox:

I don't blame the Doctor/Medical guy in question for abandoning the field if it gets bad. At the start of the Coronavirus pandemic I said to myself if I were working in a hospital I wouldn't continue to do so but hand in my notice and be off. Any life worth living and their can be too high a price to pay. End of the day it's just another job you're contracted to do and anyone is entitled to end that contract with due notice at any time of their choosing in my opinion.
