Left Back Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 10 minutes ago, Donathan said: Authorities in the UK have warned that a new monkey pox virus that has infected nine people could mutate further and cause deaths. The virus, known also as monkeypox, is understood to be primarily infecting people who have not travelled from Western Africa. Signs of infection include fever, headache, muscle aches, swollen lymph nodes, chills and exhaustion. Cases have been reported in Canada, Spain and the UK among other countries. Is it time to stock up on those little surgical masks? Are we all completely fucked? Should I take the Tamiflu I stockpiled for bird flu? Have any P&Bers ever been part of a worldwide pandemic? I remember a few years back there was some rumours of a worldwide pandemic. Britain boogied through it led by the glorious Boris Johnson so it didn’t affect me personally. My cousin in Hong Kong had to stay at home for a while though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Monkey pox", nobody's going to take that seriously until it gets a better name. Chimpfluenza? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donathan Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Not sure wearing a mask helps to prevent STDs. Unless his argument is that mask wearing weirdos never get laud. He might be on to something if that’s the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise we'll always get people demanding we are made to wear them for absolutely anything and everything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
