There have been 20 confirmed cases of Monkeypox in the UK. The disease is not sexually transmitted but it is spread by close physical contact - and the current outbreak has seen some sexual health clinics restricting access. SymeonBrown reports.

They say it’s to protect staff and users from potentially being exposed – a move that is worrying health professionals.

symeonbrown I think I might have it

symeonbrown You are being distracted.

symeonbrown This is bullshit. Bloody scare stories my the media. Covid's gone so you launch a fear campaign about a plague of knob rot.

symeonbrown Just saw your TikTok absolutely disgusted at the fact you had to state a few cases have been found in gay/bisexual men. Let’s not have another “gay plaque” situation. It’s skin to skin contact and shockingly straight people have that too.

symeonbrown This is misleading. It can be transmitted sexually as that is 'close physical contact' that you stated in this blurb. How does a person get monkeypox? 'it can happen through close skin contact, air droplets, bodily fluids, and virus-contaminated objects.'

symeonbrown Sorry but i wish Brits would spend their holidays in England this summer instead of on the Spanish coasts and islands!!!

julia_reid symeonbrown It's just bloody shingles, is it not.

symeonbrown Did someone have sex with a monkey?

symeonbrown Easily avoidable…. Don’t hug or shake hands with anyone who has massive blisters all over their face and hands. 🤷🏼‍♂️
