Reply to comment by MuayThaiYogi in UK study suggests single dose of monkeypox vaccine is 78% effective by tonymmorley

It's still a thing but by far and large the lgbtq comuninity has lived with the stigma of a botched pandemic once before.

Every single gay person I know, got two vaccines doses the second they could. In my city (Cincinnati) the local health dept went to extreme measures to get anyone that was gay or willing to say they were the vaccine for free.

This is what happened the vaccine worked and gay folks took some reasonable precautions for a month or so.

thats the plan now that schools out on break for me. kinda still sucks that theres a lot of people unvaccinated here and just assuming they wont get it cuz reports are low or "not gay" or whatever. i know the public impression on monkeypox here is that only gay people get it 100%
