Draft talk:Monkeypox
Is the smallpox vaccine referred to the cowpox from which the word 'vaccination' was derived? If not, would cowpox as previously used be effective? Anna Livia (talk) 22:56, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
Hiv and monkeypox[edit]

Sure it's worrying and needs appropriate action from appropriate authorities, but it is not hiv not even remotely. The comparisons are insulting scaremongering.
