Good Afternoon Reader. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to move to where the sky is blue. As always, should you or any of your followers be blocked, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This account will self-destruct in ten days. Good luck.

Mpox can be transmitted through intimate contact. This may be sexual in nature, but need not be. Many children have been infected from normal affectionate contact (cuddles) and some adults from exposure to skin flakes shed from severely affected people. Mpox is not a classic STI.
