Wonder how quick Conservatives will mask up and self quarentine when they risk getting craters permanently scaring their face hands and dicks to show what kind of stupid cunts they are.

Don't think I didn't notice that double and.

Can be transmitted by handling infected meat or from bites and scratches from infected animals, coming into contact with someone who is infected and touching the lesions on their skin, and a reduced risk of infection through clothes and bedding that were used by an infected person.

That's like all my favorite hobbies to do. Just want to go poke some lesions.

Considering there's a vaccine for it, seems like we should be shipping a buttload of it to Africa and nip this in the bud.

Yeah cause that worked so well last pandemic. No issues there. Also because smallpox has been eradicated, ironically, there are no stockpiles of vaccines because... we stopped vaccination programs for a disease that no one gets. We know what to do but we don't have the Vax in quantity.

A BIG outbreak started in 2022, they got little help (no help?) Only getting more attention in our papers now as it arrives outside Africa.

Sir, there is very little profit for billion dollar corporations in doing that. Think of the investors man. THINK OF THE INVESTORS!

And you also haven’t considered that making the entire population of Africa autistic and giving them all magneto powers and 5G and turbo aids would be an even bigger problem /s
