Transmission as far as we know. people get flu-like symptoms and spots all over their body like chickenpox, smallpox. you dont need to mask up again because you are afraid of monkey pox. these are heavy respiratory droplets. you wont see the asymptomatic spread. it is a very very different mode of transmission. >> the book is "panic attack". were going to push this as much as possible during this segment, at least four plugs. amazon, barnes & noble. you got it. when we come back, elon musk twitt...

Recently, as the COVID-19 pandemic seems to be coming to an end in Europe and the United States, ...

Pay attention. but i feel like this is a virus we understand. we have vaccines against it. we have treatments against it. and its spread differently than covid. its not as contagious as covid. im confident well be able to keep our arms around it. >> monkey pox is essentially a cousin of smallpox. they both come from the same family of viruses. monkey pox begins with fever, muscle aches and exhaustion. the main difference is monkey pox causes lymph nodes to swell. smallpox does not. we have a sen...

Be used for bioterrorism, so we already have a stock as a just in case. the 13 million, is that overkill? most likely especially you do have older americans who already have immunity to this virus. it is highly unlikely to have a major outbreak where we will need to have mass vaccination campaigns. the one good thing about the monkey pox/smallpox vaccine is the vaccine actually works -- you can give it to somebody who is already exposed to the virus. it is not preventing you from getting the vir...

Mentioned, this is a virus we know a bit about. and should you be concerned about it? i certainly wouldnt be as concerned about it as say the covid-19 pandemic pandemic, yes, the fact you are seeing nontravel related cases does pique my interest a little bit. we see one of the larger outbreaks globally internationally that we have seen in a while. the united states has fewer cases than we have seen in other years. it is getting more attention given the social media and the fact were on the heels...

Some questions for nicole as well. >> i was looking at my notes here. i decided to do some research. i read the book "panic attack". we talk about it on my show quite often. 2003, there were 47 confirmed cases in the united states. and not all of them directly tied. they were tied to animals brought in from ghana. we have a few confirmed cases here now in the united states, possibly. massachusetts, florida, and i forget the other state. but yet, the biden administration, we were just talking abo...

Have to go back to that. you wrote about this in "panic attack", the response, one case in massachusetts, even if we had 100 cases, 13 million? even if we shared with the world, this makes no sense. >> its too much. i agree, david. >> if i could jump in here, i want to talk a little bit about masks because especially here in new york city the department of health made this statement. they said masks can protect against monkey pox as well as other viruses circulating in new york city, such as cov...
