It appears that if you are vaccinated against smallpox you have considerable immunity to monkey pox. 

That will make a lot of seniors happy but the majority of the population didn't need to be vaccinated against a disease that was eliminated from the planet years ago.

Bring it on. I'll happily turn into a monkey. Had enough of being a guinea pig and you can't trust rats.

Might not have been vaccinated, I dont think I was. Australia didn't really participate in the global eradication program believing it was less likely to be in Australia,

You had to get smallpox vaccination for OS travel and it often left a permanent scar.

The only vaccination I can remember from a long time ago is the oral polio one which if I remember correctly tasted quite nice

 I can remember having to line up at the Sydney Girl's High School hall, to get the TB vax.

 Several girls fainted...before getting the shot.

AIDS tends to give you shingles, pox, cytokine storms over a mild cold.

But it's all good. Get your boosters. Wink

Had a fascinating chat with a Chemist.

She said people are coming in, crying, saying they tested positive to AIDS.

But its really good that we are being encouraged to get an AIDS test.

Thumbs Up

ps, Im more worried about Asteroids hitting earth. I want that vax. I'm old fashioned.

You're traveling through another dimension -- a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's a signpost up ahead: your next stop: the Twilight Zone! Tongue

 Now there's some fantasy for you...
