Some readers don’t like parody or long satire posts, they want the skinny. So, today I’ll give you the down and dirty on monkey pox and an extra peak at monkey sex leading to HIV.
The initial fake “discovery” of monkey pox did not find any virus, only cell fragments in a toxic mixed cell culture with no purified isolate, no pathogen confirmed, and no blind control.
I’ve taught you how to read viro papers already so paper reading is DIY today:
I just can’t forget though that a human was said to have sex with a monkey to get HIV to jump to humans because the CDC says HIV is a sexually transmitted disease. I mean monkey’s didn’t give humans a blood transfusion did they?
Sorry, there is no paper proving isolation of HIV enroute between species. But Nature Mag is on the monkey to human origin, just to stimulate your imagination.
In 1989…study identified an SIV [Simian Immunodeficiency Virus] in wild chimpanzees that was serologically identical to HIV-1…SIV was the likely source of the HIV-1 pandemic, but the timing, and locale of its origin were unclear.
After detailed investigation, this little proton found that that the only thing monkey sex leads to is Monkey Love 💕🩷💕

Political details too oppressive for me to write about:
Didn't Tedros unilaterally--without the vote of his council--declare the international emergency thing for monkeypox last year around this time, and the world just yawned? Why would they try this same gambit again a year later? What is different that they'd think it would be taken seriously this time?
I heard a news bit this morning on how monkey pox was found in some water supply somewhere but it wasn't enough to worry about.
I was immediately curious as to how they quantified something that doesn't exist.
