There are no cases of monkeypox in Wyoming, the only state.
No confirmed cases, true. My guess is there are cases there that have gone undetected. It’s spreading to all corners of the nation. Not like Covid, not as transmissible or as impactful, but it is a public health headache.
Omg. And we knowingly put kids at high risk. Then and now.
I do not mean parents. I mean our schools, etc. Options for parents and known safeguards were ignored.
CDC as we return to school and hopefully knowing the numbers for increased myocarditis in kids has just relaxed Covid restrictions. I can’t post the updates because the CD makes me sick.
Jeremy Faust Brigham is also tearing the cdc apart. “ The agency’s new guidelines don’t provide real-world or modeling data to support this. ” but that is the least of his comments.
CDC has put out new guidelines per channel 5 news
On Covid CDC capitulated in May of 2021. The latest move is another nail in the coffin, essentially normalizing ~500 deaths a day. Keep in mind, even in a bad flu season we don’t lose 100 a day, let alone 500.
But, CDC has capitulated on many things in the public health realm – from maternal and infant mortality to HIV to opioids, etc …
Covid, Monkeypox, and Polio all walk into a bar.
This isn’t a joke. It’s reality.
Well said. Very well said. And it is yet another strike against all Americans but in particular our youth.
Joshua, I know there is no answer. But in your wildest dreams, would you have thought the United States agencies we trust and count on to protect our health would cave to voices that have no relationship to science or even reason.
Politics gets in the way.
I’ve said this before, I don’t think any agency like the CDC (FDA and FTC, too ) should have directors/commissioners be political appointees. These should be lifers, if you will, career civil servants with no political skin in the game and no connections to a current or past Administration. They should be elected by their peers, or simply promoted to the top position by their peers, without political interference.
Thanks TK.

It is almost as if the FDA is trying to compensate for the foolishness of the CDC but falling very short.
