I’m positive they said waiting between doses meant, those of high risk still need to “be careful” because they are NOT fully protected until their second dose 28 days later”…?!

Yes. They did say that, but that is not new information. It has been mentioned in passing a few times on this thread, but not discussed in-depth. Here is something I wrote a few days back, with a little more info:

"The immune response takes 14 days after the second dose of JYNNEOS and 4 weeks after the ACAM2000 dose for maximal development. The second dose of JYNNEOS is given 28 days after the first dose... Until then he would only receive some benefit of reduced symptoms."

The last man to speak at the briefing said they were going to do everything possible to control smallpox in the United States. No one batted an eye. Weird, huh?

I caught it and almost spit my drink out. An odd mistake for some of the leading experts in government to make -- unless they are talking about smallpox a bunch in the background.

NEW: Italy launches monkeypox vaccination campaign

Italy has begun immunisation against monkeypox.

Spallanzani Hospital, Rome’s main infectious disease hospital, said on Monday that 10 people had been vaccinated and that it expected to vaccinate more than 200 people.

It stated that it is using the two-dose Jynneos vaccine, which was developed to combat the spread of smallpox but is thought to be effective against the disease as well, due to the close relationship between the smallpox and monkeypox viruses.

The vaccine can only be administered to adults.

Though the Jynneos vaccine is not new, there are no large stockpiles for the serum in Italy, according to media.

Media reports also indicated the number of vaccination requests had by late Monday surpassed 600 and was still on the rise.

The first recent Italian case of monkeypox was identified in Rome in May, and since then the country has identified at least 545 cases.

Monkeypox is a viral zoonotic disease that most frequently arises in the tropical rain forests of central and west Africa, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

Fever, open sores, rashes, and swollen lymph nodes are among the symptoms.

The World Health Organization has officially declared that the current multi-country monkeypox outbreak outside of Africa’s traditional endemic areas has already become a public health emergency of international concern.

My daughter works retail & saw someone w obvious Monkeypox try on clothing & put it back. She had to check them out later. Staff @ the store is now demanding gloves & protocols. Mgt made staff put clothes back on rack & seems clueless. Do not try on clothing in stores right now.

The dept. stores here (mid South) have not let you try on clothing since Covid started. I wanted 3 pairs of jeans, but I only got one since I wasn't sure they would fit. It is a major pain to return them. and before anybody tries to tell me that sizes are universal, I have everything from a size 5 to a size 26 in my closet and they all fit. For years I had the exact same pairs of Levis in a 10 and a 14...
I don't know if WM lets you try on clothes or not.

I wonder if they could make vx from recovered MP patients.
I recall reading how milk maids, that were recovered from cowpox, were used to make a makeshift vx for smallpox. (Before the advent of modern vaccines)

Does anyone have a county list for Texas MP cases?

I have not found a county/city list. Can you post the link to the one you found (if different than the one below)?

Most cities in Texas are only updating numbers once a week and the State of Texas only updates numbers on Tuesdays & Fridays. The CDC then updates the number the following week. This leads to a delay in reporting.

This is the best one I've found so for for Texas:

Yes! That’s true, I wonder if that would work?

They do take time to develop a vaxx though… but good idea!

In theory they could, because that is how much vaccines worked (until very recently) - by using dead or disabled versions of the existing virus. However it would work very different than the cowpox/smallpox "vaccine" that you mentioned. The smallpox vaccine (which is the one that all the people here remember getting when hey were young) is not a disabled or dead smallpox virus; it is the cowpox virus. It works because they noticed that people who had and recovered from cowpox did not get severe cases of smallpox (although they often still contracted it). They think that same cowpox/smallpox benefit applies to cowpox/monkeypox as well.

So in theory people could make a makeshift vx for Monkeypox by using cowpox (which still exists), but it is not recommended. Cowpox can still be deadly & have severe consequences if someone contracts it. Those consequences & chance of death were considered better than the consequences of smallpox in the past. The risks in contracting cowpox are probably less severe than Monkeypox, but I doubt they are orders of magnitude better enough to justify intentionally infecting one self.

I tried to post the map I found and now the site is telling me I now need JavaScript and an updated browser.
I have an old fire tablet and am inept!
The map I found is kxan monkeypox tracker.
It mainly showed cases in DFW area, Austin, and Houston areas.

This looks like the tracker you found:

www.kxan.com

Monkeypox tracker: How many cases are there in Texas?

KXAN is keeping track of the number of confirmed monkeypox cases in Texas, as reported by the Texas Department of State Health Services.
www.kxan.com www.kxan.com

Looks like the data they are showing there is a rehash of the data from Texas DSHS I posted in Post #4,744 above, breaking it down by the 11 Public health regions in Texas. If that is not the tracker you found, please let me know so I can keep looking.

But, then they would be introducing mRNA technology into folks who are determined to not have the CV vaccines. Because, you know, they will mix them all together in their brew, before poking it in your arm.
A depraved parlor trick.

A friend who grew up in Brazil and is currently living here laughed when he saw the tamarind monkeys at the zoo. Where he grew up, they had as many of the little monkeys in the yard as we have squirrels in ours. With that in mind, imagine the deep South if squirrel-pox was suddenly in the news.

I would think that those of us (most of us, anyway) living down here in the deep South would know better, unless it was a real disease carried by squirrels.

Most of us on TB? Sure, because we try to be informed.

Most of those who live in lower Alabama and southern Georgia? Okay, maybe most would have the good sense to leave the squirrels alone, but that still leaves forty-plus percent to be idiots.

My point was that in some areas of the world, there may be dozens of monkeys per yard. We're thinking of what it would take for us to find a monkey to kill, but that isn't the case everywhere.

Omg
It’s spread to dogs, announced in California.
:eek: :mad:
You have to read down a bit to find that part in this article!

Monkeypox vaccines are on the way, the virus can spread to dogs, and other takeaways from hearing

“The silver lining is that there is hope,” said Republican Sen. Rosilicie Ochoa Bogh, R-Yucaipa. “The vaccine is available; there is a means to eradicate this disease if we’re proactive.”
