As a second pandemic is now in the horizon mpox or monkey pox as they like to call it, it is important to scrutize the advise the Governing body provided last time around with covid and how they sided 100% with the governents and their medical directives and lockdowns and how they imposed one-sided narrative in congregations around the world even threatening elders who refused to obey their direction...
And went against Hebrews 10:25 - "...not forsaking our meeting together, as some have the custom..."
Monkey Pox is a bunch of hoopla in my opinion.
So far it is just skin to skin contact, primarily sexual.
So unless you live in a big city (and touch everything) or plan to visit the Congo for sex, I see no reason to get worked up.
My personal opinion.
Monkey Pox is a disease primarily of the homosexual community from all I have heard.
Balaamsass2, I agree with you that if you don't live in Africa mpox is not something to worry about at the moment, but it could be in the future. It is not only spread by skin to skin contact which is why it has spread so fast. The UK NHS says :
Mpox can be passed on from person to person through:
In parts of west, central and east Africa, mpox can also be caught from infected rodents (such as rats, mice and squirrels).

I don't see the purpose in manufacturing things to worry about, there's enough trouble to go around. I'm 73 and struggling with an age related neurological disorder. My advice; relax, enjoy the ride when possible, and don't sweat stuff.
“Monkey Pox” would be an awesome name for a punk rock group.
