Nice. Beautifully done ✔

[@dropintoseeme69]

Lines up very well with some other info I have found online. Truth seems to favor common denominators and this video shares many.

[@malakhare1970]

Well explained

[@blogdesign7126]

Thanks I needed to know this given that I was in the ICU at the time the monkeypox scare came into play.

[@lesleysears9808]

Hope you are healing from the ICU. ♥️

[@mahekshaikh8656]

This was the best informative video on CZcams on monkeypox

[@Johndoe-nx1uz]

But it left out it was released on the world by the US govt .

[@heartv212]

@@Johndoe-nx1uz Because it omitted baseless claims and stuck to the facts :)

[@rudyb1652]

The hospitals already had a staff infection virus going through hospitals for years!! Hospitals are a nasty place!!!!!!!

8:39 that’s crazy. I would only imagine if a pregnant women got infected with Zika and transmitted to baby, a male can also get infected and transmit via the definition of an std.
what crazy nuances of what makes hiv an std, Zika an std, and who knows what further studies will consider monekypox as an std (even though similar genera of poxviridae isn’t really and std).
