Polio, monkeypox, norovirus, influenza — these are just a few examples of viruses that can be acquired if someone touches their face after touching an object that was touched by an infected person.

For your own safety, it is now urgent again to be careful about NOT touching your face or, for that matter, other objects that you or your family members may later touch and spread the virus.

Monkeypox is NOT an entirely sexually-transmitted disease. It is absolutely inaccurate to claim otherwise, and from now on those posts will be deleted.
