The WHO have expressed their concerns re: the name Monkey Pox. As with Smallpox, the Spanish Flu, and the Black death, these particular names, amongst others, have displayed sinister implications of racism, discrimination & more recently, stigmatisation against our furry, banana loving, friends. ( Am I allowed to say that?) Therefore, as Covid19 & the above have already done the whole global pandemic thing, name changes have been suggested by unnamed eminent scientists so as to avoid PLAGUEerism & possible legal threats.
