The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) updated their monkeypox advice on Friday, advising those most at risk, particularly men who have sex with other men, to "take a temporary break. ”From these behaviors to help“ contain… the epidemic ”. The updated recommendations appear on the CDC web page “Safer Sex, Social Gatherings, and Monkeypox,” which contains detailed and specific information to reduce the risk of transmission during particular sexual activities.

Among the updates is the suggestion to "temporarily stop" sexual activity until you believe you are vaccinated; to limit the number of sexual partners; to avoid "spaces" for anonymous sex with multiple partners; to use condoms; wearing gloves during particular sexual activities.

These five tips for reducing the spread have been added to the seven that appeared on the web page when it was updated on July 12. In that previous update, the CDC offered suggestions on sexual activities for people who have (or think they have) "monkeypox and … decide to have sex." We are talking about a painful disease that shows itself externally with the formation of pustules … and the problem remains the desire to have sex .. well …

Friday's update contains tougher messages, with the CDC now stating that "the best way to protect yourself and others is to avoid sexual intercourse of any kind … while sick." People should especially "avoid touching any rash". I admit I cringe at the fact that there are people who want to touch the pustules of a smallpox patient …

The updates come the day after the Biden administration's declaration of a public health emergency for monkeypox in an effort to unlock funds and more powers to tackle the virus. Some states, including New York, California and Indiana, have declared their health emergency for similar reasons.

"As the CDC works to contain the current smallpox epidemic and learn more about the virus, this information can help you make informed choices when you find yourself in situations or places where smallpox could be spread," reads a statement. on the web page that was not present in July.

"Monkeypox is not considered a sexually transmitted disease, but it is often transmitted through close and prolonged physical contact, which can include sexual contact."

The CDC also advised considering the possibilities of skin-to-skin contact when attending festivals or raves. “Festivals, events and concerts where attendees are fully dressed and are unlikely to have skin-to-skin contact are safer. However, participants should be alert to activities (such as kissing) that could spread monkeypox, ”the CDC webpage reads.

“A rave, a party or a club where clothing is reduced to a minimum and where there is direct, personal contact, often skin to skin, presents a certain risk. Avoid any rashes you see on others and consider minimizing skin-to-skin contact. "

The CDC particularly highlighted the increased risk of spread in these "enclosed space" events where people go for "intimate and often anonymous sexual contacts with multiple partners."

In Italy, on the other hand, positive discrimination based on sexual role prevails: as reported by “La Verità” today, in the voluntary vaccination for Smallpox, priority will be given to Gays and to those who “have group sex”. It will be interesting to see the doctors go and ask their clients "Excuse me, but are you taking part in orgies?" to then be able to give priority to vaccination. I am convinced that many hyper-vaccinists will say yes anyway.
