New study about the persistence of #MPXV on surfaces: a visual thread:
We already know #MPXV #MonkeypoxVirus can live for 35 weeks at around 40F (4C) thanks to this 2007 study: semanticscholar.org/paper/Environm…
Researchers studied two #MPXV patients in Germany last month (eurosurveillance.org/content/10.280…) and found virus everywhere in their rooms
The virus was measured and found to not be dead, but instead, to be viable.
Public health is unserious in their response to #MPXV and in six weeks, our kids will be back in school. Here’s a map of the virus in the rooms.
Bottom line: MPXV is not an STD
