    You don't get *anything* worthwhile from the BBC.
    As far as Monkey Pox is concerned, normal people need not be alarmed.
    So long as you poke your dick where nature intended, you have nothing

    That's what they said about AIDS, until it wasn't true. The same will happen
    to monkeypox if it isn't eliminated sooner.

    I don't know. I did say it *might* be eliminated from non-endemic areas. I agree it is far from certain. I hope it is, because while it is apparently not as contagious as Covid the mortality rate may well be higher.

    American Indians were infected with smallpox thanks to the “gift” of smallpox contaminated blankets from the settlers.

    Very similar virus so yes, entirely possible.

    Well it is related to Chicken Pox and everything itches with that.

    There is evidence around that suggests its not just being spread by male to male sexual contact now, but there are classic areas where its pustules tend
    to form, sadly.

    The gift was almost certainly exactly that.

    Look at the dates of Jenner’s work on Smallpox and Lister’s on infection control ( admittedly in surgery).

    Most settlers almost certainly had no idea how that smallpox could be
    spread by blankets. Many probably couldn’t even sign their name, let alone read a medical book, even if one was available.

    As much as one can believe anything, the current (well, a couple of
    days ago) figures say 5 deaths (not sure if these were people with
    underlying illnesses) out of some 14,000 cases. All the deaths were in
    Africa.

    I'd say go and worry about malaria.

    People had ideas about disease transmission long before there was any reliable evidence. It could even be that the settlers gave the natives blankets in the hope of infecting them, but that the actual route of transmission was personal contact. I wonder if there has been an academic study of the contemporary records?

    The gift was almost certainly exactly that.

    Look at the dates of Jenner’s work on Smallpox and Lister’s on infection
    control ( admittedly in surgery).

    Most settlers almost certainly had no idea how that smallpox could be
    spread by blankets. Many probably couldn’t even sign their name, let alone
    read a medical book, even if one was available.

    People had ideas about disease transmission long before there was any reliable
    evidence.

    They thought it was bad smells (the "miasma" theory of contagion).

    (Florence Nightingale adhered to the theory until her death in early c20.)


    Roger is so anti American he looks for conspiracy under every blanket.

    Nightingale was something of a conundrum. She certainly revolutionised
    nursing and was accomplished academically - something women were generally denied the opportunity to achieve in her day- but, as you say, there are
    those who claim she refused to accept the new ( at the time) theories re infection / contagion. Fortunately, the nursing techniques she promoted successfully reduced infection regardless of the mechanism. (Not an
    original comment - I recall something similar being said in a documentary
    about medicine. )

    "miasma", a noxious atmosphere, sounds very similar to airborne
    transmission. That is a major mechanism for disease spread, isn't it?

    Relatively minor (numerically) I would reckon looking at all infectious diseases.

    It's a classic example of science getting the right result, for not

    Prior to the discovery of bacteria, and then viruses, and parasites like malaria, fleas etc. there were several competing theories of disease.
    Mal-aria = miasma = bad air, was one . Direct contagion was another.

    We believe that the contagion is the result of elements that propagate themselves, directly (bacteria) or indirectly (viruses). That's
    fundamentally different from the idea that it is the gas itself that
    causes the infection. The gas would tend to reduce in effect due to
    dilution.

    But isn't the means of transmission of all infectious diseases,
    most obviously with ebola, smallpox, cholera, malaria and
    HIV/AIDS etc and miasma's proponents didn't realise that.

    A very partial result as most of the diseases they thought were spread by miasma were in fact spread by water, arthropods or direct human contact.
