Scanning the headlines today, there are some very peculiar contradictions concerning the MONKEY POX:

What’s the real story with monkeypox? Is it just another  head-fake headline, or is this something people should worry about? How  did the virus suddenly and very rapidly spread around the globe if it’s  only spread via close contact? How did the virus evolve to become  airborne, and could this have anything to do with restricted research being conducted by government agencies?

Here are a few more questions I have about monkeypox:

  1. Why was the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommending pre-exposure prophylaxis with  a “replication-competent live virus” vaccine for orthopoxviruses in  2015, when the eradication of smallpox was achieved in 1980?
  2. Could these vaccines, which were labeled ACAM2000 and known to have severe side effects,  have been “leaky vaccines” that lead to viral shedding? Or is it  possible that a modified virus could have somehow escaped the lab  because they were “increasingly being used” in a wide range of biomedical research?
  3. In September 2019, the FDA approved yet another new vaccine for smallpox and monkeypox (JYNNEOS), which was shown to have fewerSevere Adverse Reactions than ACAM2000—even though the CDC documented more than 20 clinical studies showing adverse reactions. How is this justified?
