Is that what they said about Smallpox when it first started to ravage the world? "It's ok, not such a big deal...." ?

[Cygnet]

The anchorwoman provides merely a pretty-pretty and picturesque report on monkeypox, à la the sugary cartoon at the start of the 2004 Paramount film, "Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events". The report is blissfully facetious and conceals the real and vital fact that the recent monkeypox cases mostly involve prolonged and close face-to-face and skin-on-skin sexual contact amongst men having sex with men (MSM) with the majority of cases in the UK, Spain, Portugal and Canada. The report is not meticulous at all and masks the reasons which cause the spread of monkeypox in MSM.
