U.K. health authorities have urged anyone who tests positive for the monkeypox virus to abstain from sex until their symptoms have cleared.
In new guidance released Monday, the U.K. Health Security Agency also recommended that previously infected persons continue to use condoms for a period of eight weeks after the virus has passed, as a precautionary measure.
The health agency said the risks to the general public remain low, but encouraged people to contact a health professional if they notice any unusual rashes or lesions.
The advice comes after Britain recorded an additional 71 cases of the virus over the weekend, bringing the U.K. total to 179 less than a month after its first case was on May 7.
The U.K. now has the highest monkeypox case count among nonendemic countries, followed by Spain with 120 and Portugal with 96.
As of Monday, there were 555 confirmed and suspected cases of monkeypox in countries outside of Africa, according to Our World in Data.
Monkeypox is a rare infectious disease typically found in Central and West African countries. Symptoms include rashes, fever, headaches, muscle ache, swelling and backpain.
While the virus is generally mild, usually clearing up on its own within two to four weeks, health experts have voiced concern over the recent spike in cases in countries where monkeypox does not usually spread, and the growing risks of community transmission.
The majority of cases so far have been spread through sex, with a particular concentration of cases occurring within the gay and bisexual communities and men who have sex with men, according to the World Health Organization.

Here we go again with double-speak from the people we are supposed to trust for honest health information.
No sex with monkeys. Check.
*Cough-homos!*
The monkeys must have hired a UK lobbyist.
Confirmed: Fauci Was Funding Research into Potential Monkeypox Cures Before the Viral Disease Global Outbreak
UK health authorities are homophobic.
Gee, what are the odds that poofters would ever cease back door follies for even a short time?

Monkeypox spreads between people primarily through direct contact with infectious sores, scabs, or body fluids. It also can be spread by respiratory secretions during prolonged, face-to-face contact. Monkeypox can spread during intimate contact between people, including during sex, as well as activities like kissing, cuddling, or touching parts of the body with monkeypox sores. At this time, it is not known if monkeypox can spread through semen or vaginal fluids.
FWLIW I am a pureblood because I saw early on in 1Q2020 that we were being lied to left and right, and I didn’t trust the public health people we were supposed to trust starting then.
concentration of cases occurring within the gay and bisexual communities and men who have sex with men
So it hits carpet munchers the same as ass pirates?
What a bunch of double-speak.
Its almost like if you want to know what pandemic hits next, look into what research Fauci is funding now.
And NO BUTTS about it:-)
Sometimes it seems that homos live for sex, and sex means more to them than lives.
Not a good time to be a homo...
God does have excellent timing. A worldwide disease that is passed on through homosexual sex hits the world just before LGBTQWERTY Sexual Perversion Month
Are not the bumps and ridges tempting for that crowd?
“Everyone Has Pox! Pox Pox Pox!”
Q: Have the individuals who are ill had an orthopoxvirus virus vecrored CoupFlu vaxx and/or had sex with someone who did?
Inquiring minds want to know...
Bonus questions: Are any on PrEP? And HIV status?
Yes, but it’s fine if you have HIV.
Good luck with that. Gay men will not only continue to have sex, they will probably have more sex, with less protection, just to “fight the stigma of monkeypox”.
One consequence of us deciding to forget that homosexuality is a mental disorder is that we also forgot that homosexual behavior is only one symptom of that disorder. Reckless rebellion against authority is one of the other symptoms.
