WHO Doctors want Publics Help in renaming Monkeypox as it stigmatises Monkeys, and Africa

QuoteThe World Health Organization has asked for help from the public in coming up with a less stigmatising designation for monkeypox.

The UN health agency has for weeks voiced concern about the name of the disease that began making global headlines in May.

Experts have warned the name can be stigmatising to the primates it was named after, but who play little role in its spread, and to the African continent the animals are often associated with.

Recently in Brazil, for instance, there have been reported cases of people attacking monkeys over fear of the disease.

My suggestion:

Cheekypox.

Have any shoe-ins of chickens been documented, in Brazil or otherwise, due to their 'pox namesake?

I say lean into the monkey angle but as a sop to the monkeys make it sound more badass.

Given that the vax being administered for it is a smallpox vax, surely that could be inadvertently feeding another form of prejudice, an unprecedented wave of body-shaming. Ahh you've got monkeypox which is basically SMALLpox that means you've got a SMALL willy ahhhhh
