Monkeypox: Enough of the Lies

Season 1

Ever since the monkeypox outbreak began in the global north several months ago, there's been misinformation, hysteria and outright lies. Despite all the evidence that the virus is overwhelmingly being spread by sex between men, stating this fact has been widely portrayed online as stigmatising, while false claims that the whole population is at severe risk have spread like wildfire online. Gruesomely, all the wrong lessons from the AIDS pandemic are being learned.


It's time to give you the facts - and nothing but the facts - so we're joined by the brilliant science writer Benjamin Ryan to explain exactly what's going on - and everything you need to know.
