      From: johnny@invalid.net              By Timothy H.J. Nerozzi       Published November 23, 2022              The World Health Organization (WHO) is set to change the name of the monkeypox       virus to "MPOX."              The change in nomenclature is an attempt to destigmatize the virus at       the behest of President Biden's administration, according to a report       from Politico that cited three anonymous sources with knowledge of the       matter.              According to the report, Biden administration believes that the name       "monkeypox" carries an unnecessary stigma for people of color.              https://www.foxnews.com/world/who-rename-monkeypox-mpox-biden-admin-request              Unbelievable.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
