dc.description.abstract | Did we learn from COVID-19 to tackle the Monkeypox virus? These two illnesses are very serious and they should not be ignored. Over these past couple of years us humans have been struggling to survive in this pandemic world and we don't really need another one. From the research that was being gathered it seems like we're heading towards another pandemic with monkeypox viruses but there still hope. When bad events happen it is human nature to point a finger and blame someone for the bad event that just happened. "The covid virus came from china but the monkeypox are from spanish gays". There was a "study done in 2017 of the outbreak of monkeypox in Nigeria said that it could be sexually transmitted." It has been two years now that covid been around two years and even until this day we still haven't gotten back to our "normal daily life" and surprise now we're adding a new disease to make it harder to go back to normal. "In most countries, getting children back into school has been an ongoing issue and a major flashpoint for heated debate". We want to go back to normal but with another disease that could lead to a pandemic normal life like going to school before covid hits might not happen. It seems like we're repeating history but also learning from the past but is it enough. Because we all know we don't need another pandemic. Are there cures for either viruses? No there is no cure but both do have vaccines that help fight off these illnesses. " vaccine for smallpox so that might help at least control the virus. But it might not cure it." It's great news that there's vaccines to help but it's not a cure but it's better than nothing. | |
