Tactile Daddy

Finally a facts based comment. As opposed to the emotional pearl clutching I'm use to seeing on here. Bravo 👏

I've seen him, twice. Nice guy, pleasant personality. The first time was a good experience, not stellar, but solid for the money. With a fun ending.... Second time was polar opposite. I won't be going back again. Feel free to DM me if you would like details.

Fascinating article in the WSJ Re the current spread of Monkeypox https://www.wsj.com/articles/monkeypox-likely-circulated-for-years-before-outbreak-scientists-think-11660036465

Pedantic? LOL so you're telling me that research doctors, the New England Journal of Medicine, the CDC the WHO and the latest science are being insulting and caring too much about the smaller details. Their language is imprecise? 🤡 I'm speaking to the choir in this forum, no one is going to believe that this is a "gay disease" on this private forum. I believe what my post is trying to do is reinforce the fact that distinct changes to sexual practices are ones that should not be taken lightly, but judging from the mental gymnastics that many within the community are taking to reduce the stigma to our active sexual lives is hilarious and insulting. Many men continue to be very active and the narrative should be on point to highly recomend that practices be curbed quickly. The bleedover otherwise into the Bisexual and heterosexual society will only further enhance any stigma because far too many of us were scared of pumping the brakes on hedonism until more people can get vaccinated. The San Francisco AIDS Foundation giving lousy advice to DORE Alley visitors to simply put a bandaid on any suspicious rash or blisters before going out into high contact intimate street fair is mind boggling. Senator Scott Wiener suggesting that men will continue to make personal decisions to go to sex parties flies in the face of the mandated mask police policies he and others wanted mandate two years ago. The Hypocrisy is glaring. Your pearl clutching is palpable.

Reduce your risk. Multitudes of sources have confirmed that the primary vector of transmission has been sex. Primarily anal sex and rimming. Nothing wrong with pumping the brakes on hedonism until more of us get vaccinated.

I found this information via Dr Carlton on Instagram who has been a valuable resource for the gay community providing up to date info on monkeypox as it becomes available... This document is a non-comprehensive, crowdsourced list of where Monkeypox vaccinations are being provided in various U.S. cities while resources continue to be scarce. Much of this information is based on available information online or word-of-mouth. Https://Stopmonkeypox.org

I know two people that went to one OF THE Vaccine POD sites and they were not asked for proof of preP prescription or recent std diagnosis

"Transmission was suspected to have occurred through sexual activity in 95% of the persons with infection." From a peer reviewed paper from the New England Journal of Medicine https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2207323

I think it's worthwhile to note that even in the Great White North. Supplies of the Monkeypox vaccine are limited and in order to make supplies stretch they are currently limiting doses to one in order to get some antibodies building in the at risk populations. Furthermore outside the large cities, obtaining the vaccine is proving problematic and unavailable in many less populated provinces and smaller towns. Seems to me that a one size fits all approach, even in Canada 🍁 is not always easy when faced with the same limited supplies that the USA has to deal with. https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/monkeypox-vaccine-supply-1.6528008#amp_tf=From %1%24s&aoh=16593120861999&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbc.ca%2Fnews%2Fhealth%2Fmonkeypox-vaccine-supply-1.6528008

"Typically, Imvamune is a two-dose shot, given 28 days apart, with the option for a booster two years later. But in guidance for health-care professionals released in mid-June, Ontario said it would be using a "ring vaccination approach" and offering just a single dose in areas with confirmed cases — given the "current limited supply" of vaccines." https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/monkeypox-vaccine-supply-1.6528008#amp_tf=From %1%24s&aoh=16593113160820&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbc.ca%2Fnews%2Fhealth%2Fmonkeypox-vaccine-supply-1.6528008

If the Federal government had given equal doses per capita to every state, no doubt the roll out would still seem frustrating 😤 There were limited doses available and quite honestly I don't understand where the problem or the frustration comes in pumping the brakes on our hedonistic pursuits for a bit until such time that vaccine deployment hits critical mass. After all we all have practice in the past two years, unless everything went underground then we're talking about plain and simple hypocrisy.

For a straight answer... Google is pretty handy. Not sure why you expect experts on here to spoonfeed you the information when reliance on one's own due dilligence is the best route

Thank you for a fact based and logical response. The histrionics previous are tiring AF

Here's an informative article shedding light on why the roll out of the Jynneos vaccine has been so terribly slow. Stockpiles were virtually non existent for starters... https://time.com/6198298/monkeypox-vaccine-shortage/ In all honesty seems like a great time to be patient and practice some restraint if you're a highly active man, keeping your encounters to a limited pod you feel comfortable and safe with until more vaccine gets rolled out and distributed. Seems like a small price to pay for some piece of mind

Houston received an initial shipment of 5000 doses. A tiny amount compared to what other cities are receiving. It was just announced today that an additional 16,000 doses are on the way https://www.houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/news/health-science/2022/07/29/429377/houston-region-to-receive-more-monkeypox-vaccine-doses-as-case-numbers-climb/

LA County Public Health has several POD (Point of Dispensing) clinics where you can walk in without an appointment. Only prerequisite is that you should be on PreP. But they do request ID, so I assume they also look for residency?
