THE Ministry of Health and Wellness has assured the public there are no confirmed cases of Monkeypox in the country.
In a press release posted on their Facebook page yesterday, the ministry noted the National Disease Surveillance Unit is monitoring an individual who arrived in The Bahamas last weekend with a travel history of locations where outbreaks have occurred.
“That individual has been placed in isolation and samples have been obtained for processing. The male who is in mid-30s has had significant resolution of his signs and symptoms. His only known contact is his wife, who is not showing any signs of Monkeypox,” the release said.
“The ministry has issued an Epo Alert which has been sent to physicians across the country to continue surveillance for any persons who may present with signs and symptoms of Monkeypox.”
The release indicated symptoms of Monkeypox include skin rash, fever, headache, backache, swollen lymph nodes, chills and exhaustion. Symptoms can last for two to four weeks.
“The death rate associated with the disease is low ranging between three to six percent of persons infected. Any person who feels that he/she has these symptoms are asked to practice health and safety protocols (physical distancing, wearing of face masks and hand sanitisation) and contact their primary care physician or nearest public health clinic for evaluation at the earliest opportunity.
“To date, the WHO has confirmed that nearly 200 cases of Monkeypox has been reported in more than 20 countries worldwide. The disease is being described as ‘containable’ by the World Health Organisation.”

Coming to The Bahamas soon......from the African continent via Haiti. And lengthy lock downs in the height of a sweltering summer will be the Bahamian government's quick answer to the first reported case in The Bahamas.

Don't forget it is most commonly communicated by intimate physical contact (sexual activity) - so this pandemic will see the need for locking us out of our bedrooms and we will probably need Monkeypox Ambassadors to follow us around to make sure we sanitize our private parts and wear protection whenever we are in close proximity to consenting adults

Yup. That would be the cruel Davis way of dealing with Monkeypox.....entirely consistent with the Chinese Communist Party playbook to which he must adhere or else.

Is Smallpox any more dangerous than Monkeypox? Have we ever run amok like this for Chickenpox? Smallpox and Monkeypox are closely related, and don't all Bahamians receive a Smallpox vaccine as a childhood routine inoculation?

Smallpox vaccination was stopped worldwide in 1980.
Smallpox killed 30% of infected.
Monkeypox more deadly than covid 3-5%.
Could have been made artificially more deadly or the covid jab enhances monkey pox.
So, if you dud not receive a small pox vaccine, please were a condom at the foodstore and the bank.

Are they sure it's not "invisible" monkeypox?? Cause a recent article said we have invisible Covid since nobody is dying.
This is the prob with the globalists plan for control. The more people they kill, the fewer are left to control.

Italy, one of the most compliance enforcers along with Australia, Bahamas, Canada today, totally shredded its covid infrastructure of tests, passes cowersed vaccinations etc.

I guess WHO/PAHO went into sovereignty over reach by seeking a mandate that would close and lockdown nations at a whim and order.
