The agency appears to have updated its website, erasing any direction advising travelers to wear masks. Instead, the CDC recommends travelers avoid close physical contact with infected people, wash their hands with soap and water, and avoid touching their eyes, nose and mouth.
“People usually become infected with the monkeypox virus through contact with the skin lesions or bodily fluids of infected animals or humans (alive or dead), including respiratory droplets, or through contact with materials contaminated with the virus,” according to the CDC’s notice.
The CDC said monkeypox is a rare disease found throughout Central and West Africa, especially in tropical rain forests. People infected with the disease have been found in Europe, North America, South America, Africa, Asia and Australia, according to the agency.
“Some cases were reported among men who have sex with men. Some cases were also reported in people who live in the same household as an infected person,” the CDC reported.
The U.S. has 31 confirmed cases of monkeypox, according to the CDC. The agency reported several states with confirmed cases including California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Washington.
One of Florida’s four cases was also included in the U.K.’s case count because the person tested positive while in the U.K., according to the CDC.
The agency advised that antivirals developed for smallpox and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) are among the limited therapy options for monkeypox.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

Given that the monkeypox appears to be a cover up for the “autoimmune blistering disease” mentioned in Pfizer’s documents; a mask isn’t going to help you. Masks DON’T work and are extremely harmful to your body in myriad ways. Don’t fall for it.
