In this case, probably literally.
San Francisco declared a public health emergency over monkeypox.
Besides the fact that no one has died from it (in the US–in Spain, a man with lymphona passed), it has become an STD and is being spread within the gay community (two kids so far have had it so far, but they had close contact–nothing has been specified but probably a parent–I hope).
So what does the gay community in San Francisco do? They have a kink fair that attracts thousands of gay men.
Of course they had tents and public health out to tell people to get their monkeypox shots. From the articles I read, nothing was really said about not having sex with strangers. Which would be the way to end this thing within a month.
But of course without a new ’emergency’ then no federal, state, or local funding and associated graft can be put into place.
