Ask HN: Can some doctors here talk about Monkeypox risk and outlook?

3 pointsby staccatomeasurealmost 3 years ago
Reddit was full of great content for covid but it seems empty for Monkeypox info. I can’t tell if pandemic fatigue is leading people to not talk more about this. What’s going on?

He&#x27;s a registered nurse in the NHS. Since everybody has a bias: he&#x27;s pro vaccination, pro masks, pro social distancing (when it came to COVID). He usually comments on latest studies and has done so for two years.

A doctor told me this: Transfer is through close physical contact. Risk higher for people that have anal sex. It&#x27;s possible to transfer without sexual contact (injured skin), but sex is the most common.

Outlook seems to be pretty good; there&#x27;s apparently very few deaths resulting from this outbreak. I think survivors are likely to have some cross immunity for smallpox.
