UNAIDS warns that stigmatizing language on Monkeypox jeopardises public health
UNAIDS ^ | May 22, 2022 | Staff

Posted on 05/24/2022 8:50:59 AM PDT by C19fan

UNAIDS has expressed concern that some public reporting and commentary on Monkeypox has used language and imagery, particularly portrayals of LGBTI and African people, that reinforce homophobic and racist stereotypes and exacerbate stigma. Lessons from the AIDS response show that stigma and blame directed at certain groups of people can rapidly undermine outbreak response.

I remember the same gaslighting from the outbreak of AIDS. Has UNAIDS and others of their ilk ever expressed concern about how the G in LGBT has repeatedly been a vector to spread disease with their repugnant behavior?

But it’s okay to call those mentioning the current truth of the matter, “homophobic” and “racist?”

Another gay disease that we’re supposed to pretend is not a gay disease.

Do these people read Orwell’s books as how-to guides?

Didn’t take long for this to happen. It was inevitable they would turn this into a privileged disease. Is it a crime to associate it with people who, by their actions, make it easier to get the disease?

Will it be racist to call it Monkey Pox?

How queer is that? One word, used different is a supposed source of “pride” AND a pejorative.

We’ll, AIDS WAS spread by queers. It was spread among straight people from IV drug users who likely got it from some user who performed queer acts for drug money, and closeted queers contaminating the Red Cross blood supply for money. Not sorry about the stigma. AIDS is a disease spread by queers. Full stop. Monkey pox is being spread by queers. The more we condone queers and their behavior, the more of this crap we’re going to get.

I view the UNAIDS as a spreader of monkey pox.

Among other diseases.

Whatever happened to what we learned as kids - ‘stix and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me’?

And this is why we should not listen to them. When the health agencies care more about PR than health, they should be shut down.

They are still trying to push the narrative that gay men as a group are no more promiscuous than heterosexual men. And that diseases of promiscuity are just as prevalent in the heterosexual population as the homosexual population.

Both of those narratives are patently untrue.

Yep, as we’re finding out that the current Monkeypox outbreak centered on a gay sex festival in Belgium pardon me if I’m not feeling particularly diverse and tolerant of degenerates right now.

Should not the carriers be issued health passports?
