Seems like a principled response. The response of the system has been instructional to behold. We saw a fairly comprehensive shutdown during covid (govt offices, most public and private businesses, cancelling of most large social events) - yet with monkeypox a complete unwillingness to even entertain the idea of shutting down super-spreader like events such as pride festivals. Goes to show - the US holds as its highest principal the freedom of people to sodomize one another.
