WHO to Convene Emergency Committee on Monkeypox

The World Health Organization (WHO) announced Tuesday that it would convene an emergency committee next week to assess whether the current spread of monkeypox constitutes a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). The announcement follows the spread of the disease in at least 32 new countries outside the nine African countries where it is endemic.

According to the legal framework of the International Health Regulations (IHR), a formal declaration of a PHEIC—which currently applies only to the COVID-19 pandemic and polio—is the highest level of global alert issued by the WHO. Page 9 of the Regulations outlines a “public health emergency of international concern” further, stating:

“[a] public health emergency of international concern means an extraordinary event which is determined, as provided in these Regulations:

(i) to constitute a public health risk to other States through the international spread of disease and
(ii) to potentially require a coordinated international response.

MEMO TO: World (un) Heath Organization

Kindly direct all your energies, directive, and mandates to the sodomites infecting each other.

151 of 162 monkeypox cases in UK–among the faggotry.

…and June is their “Pride” month? what in the name all that is holy have they to be “proud” of?

Objectively disordered lives, perversion, demented thinking, inhuman behavior, and horrific diseases for openers caused by their own self-inflicted conduct.

HIV/AIDS has a cure–it’s called “Death.”

The monkeypox is just s side show.
