Yesterday the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of Monkeypox (Mpox) in Africa as a public health emergency of international concern. This is based upon the increase in cases (more than 14,000 reported) and the number of deaths (about 524 reported) that have occurred. The declaration was made in Geneva by Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus, the Director General of the WHO. It’s the highest level of alarm that can be conveyed by the WHO.
Twila began by asking if such a declaration would have been made in the pre-COVID era. She believes the WHO is playing rather loose with the idea of a global emergency. For example, in contrast to the COVID pandemic, there are absolutely no reported cases of Mpox in the U.S. and it’s typically caught within the homosexual population so it has more limited reach. So she feels that to call this a “global emergency of the highest kind” is perhaps an attempt to help them keep their power and presence in the news as they had during the COVID pandemic.
As this program unfolds you’ll hear about dangerous DEI practices in medicine, the shortage of doctors and nurses, the challenges of Medicare, Twila’s feelings about Governor Walz of Minnesota, her views on the two election tickets and how they view healthcare, as well as input from callers across America.
