So, Monkey Pox is being rebranded to Mpox once the copyright paperwork has been agreed with Hanson.

Monkeypox given new name by global health experts

The change to mpox was prompted by concerns over negative connotations from the name of the virus.

And it seems another disease has already been rebranded on the sly. Apparently that new outbreak of a "bacterial infection" you know, Strep A, :rolleyes: is not in fact the latest invention from a Chinese lab, but is actually that old favourite Scarlet Fever!

More accurate to say there has certainly been at least one case in a migrant, and by packing 4,000 people into a facility designed for 1,600, this highly contagious disease has spread among the people packed into Manston in unhygenic conditions

Authorities in other parts of the country are not at all pleased that Cruella's department has been distributing infected people around the country in buses and they are not informed of test results (if any).

That will be next.

Now forever associated with the poor and the persecuted escaping the wars of Albania and the tyranny of Macron.

It needs a more positive medical description .... Freestuffitus? Hilton Syndrome? Rainbow's End by Proxy?
