A leading adviser to the World Health Organization described the unprecedented outbreak of monkeypox in developed countries as “a random event” that might be explained by sexual behaviour at two recent raves in Europe.
That marks a significant departure from the disease’s typical pattern of spread in central and western Africa, where people are mainly infected by animals like wild rodents and primates and outbreaks have not spilled across borders. On Monday, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control Director Andrea Ammon said “the likelihood of further spread of the virus through close contact, for example during sexual activities among persons with multiple sexual partners, is considered to be high.”
Madrid’s senior health official said Monday that the Spanish capital had 30 confirmed cases. Enrique Ruiz Escudero said authorities are investigating possible links between a recent Gay Pride event in the Canary Islands, which drew some 80,000 people, and cases at a Madrid sauna. Heymann chaired an urgent meeting of WHO’s advisory group on infectious disease threats on Friday to assess the outbreak and said there was no evidence to suggest that monkeypox had mutated into a more infectious form.
Authorities in Britain, Spain and Portugal have said most of the cases identified so far were in young men whose infections were picked up when they sought help for lesions at sexual health clinics.
I have a bad feeling about PRIDE and Caribana this year. Could be a super spreader event.
This is stupid. Stop hyping-up stories just to attract attention. Monkey Pox is not a threat to the general public. Grow. Up!

Military plane from Europe carrying 35,380 kg of baby formula lands in U.S. | CBC NewsA military plane carrying enough specialty infant formula for more than half a million baby bottles arrived Sunday in Indianapolis, the first of several flights expected from Europe aimed at relieving a shortage that has sent parents scrambling to find enough to feed their children. This is so embarassing. Having to use military resources to make up.for.his failures. Would never have happened under Trump Say what u will, Trump would have builtn7 factories in a week. I can't wait until the CBC is defunded and this type of political journalism chicanery is softened to a whimper. Independent journalists would get to the truth. Instead, we have political positioning and woke buzz words that pull at the heartstrings of the masses. The jig is up!

First shipment of baby formula arrives in U.S. from EuropeWhite House says a second flight carrying formula would leave from Ramstein Air Base in Germany in coming days Gee it's almost as if 43B given to fund the MIC could have been more wisely spent on companies to make more of the formula right in good old America. Always money for war and war mongering, never anything for the average worker or child. NAFTA/USMCA too idle? We live in North America. We need to support our economy here too. Every one talks supporting local economy & won’t even do business on our continent of North America. We still support North America. Am happy we do.
