As if 2022 wasn’t crazy enough, now it appears that we could be on the verge of another very deadly global pandemic. As I write this, there are now 204 confirmed, probable or suspected cases of monkeypox in 17 different nations around the world.
By the time you read this, that total will probably be even higher. In fact, the World Health Organization is specifically warning us to expect more cases. Needless to say, this new outbreak has spawned a lot of really bizarre theories. Some of these theories will end up being proven false, but at least some of these theories are likely to turn out to be accurate. There is still so much we don’t know, but it certainly appears that this pandemic has the potential to become another major global crisis.
