Sly Posted 15 August 2024 Posted 15 August 2024 Anyone that wants more info on MPox https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/mpox/ “Mpox is caused by a similar virus to smallpox. The smallpox (MVA) vaccine should give a good level of protection against mpox”.

StanSP Posted 16 August 2024 Posted 16 August 2024 Sad to hear that Matthew Perry's demise was taken advantage of by people who were meant to be trusted and professional.

Sadly it has gone on for years in tinsel town, Michael Jackson was killed by his doctor and how many plastic surgeons take advantage of their clients who clearly have MH issues. It's all about money in that part of the world. 1
davieG Posted 16 August 2024 Posted 16 August 2024 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cd6yj26vz8yo Thailand's parliament has picked Paetongtarn Shinawatra, the daughter of billionaire tycoon and former leader Thaksin, as prime minister. At 37, she will be the country's youngest PM and the second woman in the post, after her aunt Yingluck. Her selection comes just two days after former PM Srettha Thavisin was dismissed by a constitutional court. Both are from the Pheu Thai Party, which came second at the 2023 election but formed a ruling coalition.

Paninistickers Posted 16 August 2024 Posted 16 August 2024 Just reading the Reginald D Hunter story on his run in Edinburgh being cancelled for a joke about Israel, that, surprise surprise, has been deemed as 'anti semetic' a Couple of jewish audience members heckled the joke and then got some shite back from the audience. They gave it it seems, but didn't like it back. Which was kind of the point of Hunter's original gag.

Putting aside the Palestine group's sympathies for a moment we can't have defence establishments under attack what with Putin and his agents at play.
