Even More Cases Of The Monkeypox Have Been Confirmed As This Sickening Plague Continues To Spread
It is just 24 hours later, and the number of confirmed cases in the UK has more than doubled. I told you that I would be keeping an eye on this story, and there have been some alarming new developments. When I wrote about the monkeypox outbreak in the UK yesterday, there were three confirmed cases. Now there are seven, and authorities can’t explain why it is spreading. This is a disease that is not supposed to spread from person to person easily, but apparently some human to human transmission has been happening in these new cases.
According to UK authorities, the four new confirmed cases are all “gay or bisexual men” and none of them have recently been to Africa…
Four more people have been diagnosed with monkeypox in the UK, bringing the total number of cases in the latest outbreak to seven. All four new patients are gay or bisexual men who were infected in London and had no travel links to Africa, health chiefs have confirmed after MailOnline broke the news earlier today.
So obviously these four men caught the monkeypox in the UK.
But what is really puzzling officials is the fact that these four new cases have had no contact with the case that was confirmed on May 7th, and they have had no contact with the cases that were confirmed on May 14th…
Urgent investigations are underway to establish links between the latest four cases, although it seems not to be connected to the case announced on May 7, nor the previous infections announced on May 14. The UKHSA noted that all of the latest patients being treated for the viral infection self-identify as gay, bisexual, or have been with other men. “Those patients needing medical care are all in specialist infectious disease units at the Royal Free Hospital, Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle upon Tyne, and Guys’ and St Thomas’,” the UKHSA noted.
This would seem to suggest that there are additional cases somewhere out there that authorities do not know about yet.
At this point, gay and bisexual men in the UK are being instructed to watch out for any “unusual rashes or lesions”…
“We are particularly urging men who are gay and bisexual to be aware of any unusual rashes or lesions and to contact a sexual health service without delay. “We are contacting any potential close contacts of the cases to provide health information and advice.”
I will continue to monitor this story as it develops, because it could potentially become a really big deal.
As I explained yesterday, the CDC says that the death rate for the monkeypox in humans can be around 10 percent.
We are already dealing with COVID and a horrifying new bird flu pandemic, and so we definitely don’t need another pestilence to add to the list.
