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:
http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/midlands-news/monkeypox-warning-issued-anybody-who-24042750This 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.
