We’re “losing the fight against monkeypox”…apparently

According to the New York Times the US is currently “losing the fight with Monkeypox”. That’s probably news to you. After all, given the fact the US has around 700 cases of Monkeypox (around 0.0002% of the population), that the entire world only 8000 “cases” (about 0.0001%), and that there have been just 3 reported deaths…well, you’d be forgiven for not realising there was a fight at all, let alone that we were losing.
