Ooohh... look... we already have our own special 'brand' of Monkeypox.

Hooray for us!!
Oh, I was speaking to a friend of mine and his wife at Belmont Forum yesterday morning and part of our conversation went something like this:
Him:
"You know this Monkeypox we've been hearing about?"Me:
"Yes".Him:
"You know you can't catch it, don't you?"Me:
"Who can't catch it?"Him:
"You, me, my wife, anyone who isn't a homosexual can't get it".I then spent the next few minutes trying to explain why that isn't true, I think he believed me - not too sure.
Sadly, this is what the majority of people seem to believe at the moment due to the non existent health advice from our Federal and State governments - just like with COVID-19.
And, while I was there I happened to notice that there probably wasn't more than 5% of people in the shopping centre wearing masks at the time (because they've been told the Covid pandemic is over and Monkeypox isn't an issue because it's just a STD for homosexuals).
No wonder we are in the mess we're in right now.
