Wednday! You may have seen some FBI-related news this week — if you’re terted the Mar-a-Lago raid, cludg some ferenc about the stat of the vtigatns to and around Donald Tmp, I remend you check out the </span><a href=" rel>newt episo of Ser Trouble</a><span> wh me and Ken Whe. (Remember: Very Ser paid subscribers n email for a 50% disunt on Ser Trouble, which will get you accs to the full length episo.)</span></p><p><span>We also talk about one thg Tmp uld do if the purpose of the raid really was bizarrely piyune — he uld release the warrant, which the FBI agents were </span><em>required</em><span> to leave at Mar-a-Lago when they executed the search. The warrant don’t nta all the rmatn about why they thk there’s evince of a crime at Mar-a-Lago, but do say which specific statut they’re vtigatg Tmp unr. So far, he’s keepg that unr wraps.</span></p><div><hr /></div><p>But now: monkeypox, and the public health officials who keep gaslightg . A rear, Everett, referred me to a recent terview wh a public health official Portland, Oregon, about monkeypox that really hs all the wrong not about how to talk to the public about this outbreak:</p><blockquote><p><span>I would like to share a piece of </span><a href=" rel>a recent terview</a><span> I heard on OPB (Our NPR affiliate). The gut is a senr adviser wh the Oregon Health Authory, the state agency that was also charge of most policy cisns for Covid-19. Here is the exchange between Jenn Chávez (OPB host) and Dr. Tim Menza (OHA adviser) that left me a b puzzled. </span></p></blockquote><p><span>Yeah, this terview was really bad. I want to talk about the </span><em>manner</em><span> which is bad, bee while ’s jt one terview wh one public health official one state, Dr. Menza do four thgs that are emblematic of how public health has repeatedly failed recent years:</span></p><ol><li><p><span>He fails to clu velopg knowledge about an ongog outbreak his public munitn about how </span><em>this</em><span> outbreak is happeng.</span></p></li><li><p>He lets woke iology get the way of clear munitn.</p></li><li><p>He whholds rmatn bee he don’t tst the public to e the way he would like them to.</p></li><li><p>He unnecsarily alarms the broad public about a disease wh fairly specific risk factors, while failg to effectively highlight those factors for those most at risk.</p></li></ol><p><span>As you know om readg this newsletter, there are several ways that monkeypox </span><em>n</em><span> spread, but this outbreak largely </span><em>is</em><span> spreadg though sexual ntact between men. So, you would thk, when the OPB host asked “what are the bt ways for people to rce their risk of ntractg the vis?” Menza might have at least </span><em>mentned</em><span> sex. Unfortunately, he did not. He found time to discs the risks associated wh a handful of other activi — beg an office, learng a classroom, gog to a bar or a club, </span><em>massagg someone wh monkeypox sor</em><span>, etc. — but uldn’t que brg himself to say “sex.”</span></p><p>Here’s his termable answer to that simple qutn:</p><blockquote><p><em>We n kd of try to put activi to specific risk levels. Thgs that I would say are unlikely to transm hMPXV are thgs like takg public transportatn, gog out to eat, gog to the grocery store, gog to have ffee wh iends, beg an office wh your workers and learng a classroom. Those thgs are all low-risk activi. Hangg out outsi at a bar or a club or a fe, totally low risk activi.</em></p><p><em>Beg more crowd spac where there’s ls clothg and more sk-to-sk ntact, like a bar or club perhaps, that’s where that sk-to-sk ntact to play. We’ve been tryg to msage to folks to jt nsir the amount of sk-to-sk ntact you might expect a suatn or a place that you might be or an event that you might be attendg.</em></p><p><em>And then the thgs that then move up sle are thgs that clu more prolonged sk-to-sk ntact. Like perhaps massagg an area wh sk that is affected by hMPXV, or huggg ntact wh sk that is affected by hMPXV. Or perhaps cuddlg. The other thg is we know that when we talk about rpiratory secretns we thk about saliva too. So thgs like kissg or sharg a toothbsh might be a ltle b higher risk.</em></p><p><em>And then the thgs that have the most risk is when there’s that really direct prolonged sk-to-sk ntact wh the sor, the sbs or the fluids of the rash.</em></p></blockquote><p><span>Image you were a person who knew nothg about monkeypox. Would hearg that answer help you unrstand what monkeypox risks you have and what you n do to addrs them? Not really. If you’re </span><em>not</em><span> a man who has sex wh men, you might e away ordately ncerned that you’ll tch monkeypox om beg a crowd at a ncert. If you </span><em>are</em><span> a man who has sex wh men, you won’t be rmed of your particular risk om sexual exposure — which is a problem, bee </span><a href=" rel>CDC data as of late July showed that 99% of US monkeypox s had been men</a><span>, and 94% of those men wh data provid to the CDC reported “sexual or close timate ntact” wh another man wh the 3 weeks prr to the start of symptoms.</span></p><p><span>And even if you — still a gay man, this hypothetil — read between the l of Menza’s weirdly pdish mg about what nstut “prolonged sk-to-sk ntact” (“perhaps massagg… or huggg… or perhaps cuddlg…”) and fer that </span><em>sex</em><span> might be one of the major risks here, you’re still liable to be improperly reassured by Menza’s overemphasis on the importance of ntact wh sor and sbs.</span></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{"url":"" data-ponent-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href=" rel><span>Share</span></a></p><p><span>Most people, I thk, stctually avoid extend ntact wh other people’s sor and sbs whout havg to be told to do that by a public health profsnal.</span><div class="footnote-hoverrd-target"><a class="footnote-anchor" data-ponent-name="FootnoteAnchorToDOM" id="footnote-anchor-1-68079182" href=" rel>1</a></div><span> But if you’re led to believe that ntact wh sor and sbs is sential to spreadg monkeypox, then you might fer that ’s low-risk to have sex wh someone who has clear sk. And until very recently, </span><a href=" rel>the CDC was reassurg the public that ’s impossible to spread monkeypox whout symptoms</a><span>. But as the NYC Department of Health has been rrectly warng gay men, </span><em>we don’t know if that’s te</em><span> — and the manner which this outbreak has propagated self would ankly make more sense if there is a signifint gree of non-symptomatic spread. </span></p><p>Menza did eventually get around to talkg about gay men, sort of, when prompted by his terviewer (who, of urse, went directly to the issue of “stigma” before anyone voted any time to the qutn of whether gay men need any particular rmatn about risk rctn):</p><blockquote><p><em><strong>Chávez:</strong><span> Right now my unrstandg is that many of the s Oregon have been found cisgenr men who have sex wh men. And I’m wonrg how you are approachg public health msagg around this — ristg stigmatizatn and shame and blame while also still targetg those most at risk right now wh rourc.</span></em></p><p><em><strong>Menza:</strong><span> It’s que the challenge. What we’ve been tryg to do as bt as we n is stick wh what we know. In the Uned Stat, we know that </span><strong>people assigned male at birth who have sex wh men and people assigned female at birth</strong><span>, cludg at least one pregnant person, have been affected by hMPXV Oregon. We know that cisgenr men and nonbary people are affected by hMPXV. While most intify as gay or queer and report close ntact wh people assigned male at birth, we have s that also intify as straight and bisexual and report close ntact wh people assigned female at birth.</span><strong> (emphasis add)</strong></em></p></blockquote><p><span>It is simple enough to say that monkeypox is spreadg pecially among </span><em>men who have sex wh men</em><span>. If you also say that there is elevated risk for </span><em>trans and nonbary people who have sex wh men</em><span>, you’ve vered the whole universe of elevated sexual risk for monkeypox a clear and unrstandable way. Instead, Menza starts by talkg about, for some reason, “people assigned male at birth who have sex wh men and people assigned female at birth” — that is, to a first approximatn, gay men </span><em>pl women</em><span>, which is not anywhere close to an accurate scriptn of the high-risk group.</span></p><p><span>It is unacceptable, if you have Dr. Menza’s job, to speak woke word salads like this. Menza is speakg on a broadst news program. It is his </span><em>job</em><span> to munite clear terms to the broad public. And few members of the public scribe themselv as “assigned male at birth” or even thk of their sex as somethg that was “assigned.” This is woke jargon, and ’s unsuable for a news terview.</span></p><div data-ponent-name="SubscribeWidget" class="subscribe-widget"><div class="pencraft ontend-pencraft-Box-module__ret--VfQY8 ontend-pencraft-Box-module__display-flex--ZqeZt ontend-pencraft-Box-module__flex-jtify-center--SQPji"><div class="ontend-ponents-ee_email_form-module__ntaer--OfBh4"><form actn="/api/v1/ee?nojs=te" method="post" noValidate class="form ontend-ponents-ee_email_form-module__form--LDIzl"><put type="hidn" name="first_url" /><put type="hidn" name="first_referrer" /><put type="hidn" name="current_url" /><put type="hidn" name="current_referrer" /><put type="hidn" name="referral_" /><put type="hidn" name="source" value="subscribe-widget" /><put type="hidn" name="referrg_pub_id" /><put type="hidn" name="addnal_referrg_pub_ids" /><div class="ontend-ponents-ee_email_form-module__siBySiWrap--yhsgv"><put type="email" name="email" placeholr="Type your email..." class="pencraft ontend-ponents-ee_email_form-module__emailInput--BLQGf" /><button tabInx="0" type="subm" class="button rightButton primary subscribe-btn ontend-ponents-ee_email_form-module__button--WcLG9"><span class="button-text ">Subscribe</span></button></div><div id="error-ntaer"></div><div class="subtle-help-text below-put ontend-ponents-ee_email_form-module__lks--G_QlQ"></div></form><div class="ontend-log-typo_handler-EmailTypoHandler-module__animatnWrapper--UT0du"></div></div></div></div><p><span>Menza also sists on llg the disease hMPXV — later the terview, there’s an extend discsn of why he don’t like the term “monkeypox” — but aga, </span><em>clary</em><span>.

They rely on “muny partners” to liver that secret msage. </span><em>Well, first of all, what about gay men who listen to Oregon Public Broadstg? </em><span>I promise you there are gays listeng to public rad.

And this go to the part of the monkeypox msagg nonsense that </span><em>isn’t</em><span> polil rrectns — ’s nrotic public health officials beg veterately pable of tellg anyone their risk is low due to mographics.</span></p><p>But the biggt problem wh this msagg strategy is simply that is dishont. </p><p>Menza knows somethg — that this outbreak is happeng almost entirely through gay sex — but this terview, he’s hidg the ball about that bee he don’t tst the broad public wh that rmatn. He’s ncerned that knowledge of this fact will e people to stigmatize gay men.</p><p><span>I first of all thk is crazy — if you want to </span><em>avoid</em><span> stigmatizg gay men — to duce straight people to be unnecsarily aaid of acquirg, through sual ntact, a disease that is spreadg mostly among gay men through sex. But I would also note that we have jt gone through a multi-year procs which the public teem for the public health apparat has dimmed nsirably. People have noticed that public health statements were not always on the level, and that mak them ls cled to tst those statements. (Remember the CDC tellg people March 2020 not to wear masks? And then not acknowledgg airborne COVID spread until October 2020? Remember thoands of ‘experts’ signg that June 2020 letter sayg was sudnly okay to go out public so long as you were prottg for the right polil ?)</span></p><p>And public health officials, stead of swallowg their pri and tryg to rega public tst, have been credibly arrogant, ntug to view themselv as the judg of what rmatn the public n and n’t be tsted wh, as they try to supply and whhold that rmatn the way they thk will bt shape public behavr toward their own iologil ends.</p><p>Frankly, I feel a great al of spair about this suatn. We do need public health experts. Their work, when done well, is important. But the field is full of leftist weirdos who let iology get the way of facts and who n’t help themselv om puttg their thumbs on the sle to promote their preferred iologil out. As a rult, many of them are pable of dog their jobs properly, pecially when the job scriptn entails behavg a manner that might engenr the tst of the broad public. And I don’t know what to do about that.</p><div><hr /></div><p>Speakg of tst officials, FDA Commissner Robert Califf has ma a pretty “whoa, if te” announcement about monkeypox vacc: That we’ve found a way to oculate people wh jt one-fifth the normal vacce dose amount. The FDA says jectg the JYNNEOS vacce trarmally (that is, wh the sk) duc a much stronger antibody rponse than the ual subcutaneo jectn, which turn mak possible to greatly shrk the vacce dose, so we n get 5 or 6 shots out of what is supposed to be a one-dose vial.</p><p>Or at least, the FDA thks will work that way.</p><p><span>I am genuely unsure what to make of this cisn, and </span><a href=" rel>relevant experts are divid on </a><span>. It do seem clear that the smaller trarmal jectn do jt as well at </span><em>ducg the productn of antibodi</em><span> as the larger subcutaneo jectn. What’s ls clear is whether that means ’s siarly equivalent for producg immuny — immune rpons are plex and, as many of learned durg COVID, don’t always simply rrpond to antibody ter levels. It’s also unclear how quickly lol health partments n sle the new vacce strategy, which will be more plited to admister and require retrag the profsnals who provi the jectns.</span></p><p><span>The problem is we don’t have any </span><em>available</em><span> optns that are known to be better than the one the FDA is advancg, sce we don’t have enough vacce to immunize the relevant populatn through the ual admistratn method, and we likely won’t until well to 2023.</span></p><p><a href=" rel>As I’ve wrten before</a><span>, several large health partments are currently alg wh the vacce shortage by layg the send dose of the two-dose vacce regimen. As wh the swch to an trarmal jectn, ’s currently unknown exactly how much that impacts effectivens. Another optn is to e an olr smallpox vacce that we have much more ample supply, ACAM2000, but that vacce has an unappealg si-effect profile and also (unlike JYNNEOS) nsists of a replitg live vis that n be spread through ntact wh the jectn se.</span></p><p>In the difficult circumstanc, I am pleased to see the FDA gettg creative a suatn where creativy was need.

In fact, g out probably would have earned him sympathetic news verage and softened his image at a time when his rerd as mayor was often cricized for reasons related to race relatns and the AIDS crisis — cludg the specific allegatn that he shied away om learship on AIDS for fear that associatn wh a “gay issue” would fan the (te) mors that he was theory the Tim piece nsirs is that, after nyg his sexualy for so many years the face of tractors like Larry Kramer who wanted him outed, Koch felt g out would be tantamount to lettg them w.

Gays had long been nsired disgtg, but wh world war they me to be nsired secury threats, at risk of blackmail over their appallg secrets. As a ncept, that this would be a risk mak tuive sense, though Jamie not the surprisg difficulty Amerin officials had when asked to intify any specific s where gays ernment were blackmailed over their sexual orientatn. And bis, whatever secury risk homosexuals posed was not really a product of their sexual orientatn self, but of the ernment’s and society’s reactn to their sexual orientatn — if you let people eely adm they are gay, then there’s no shameful secret to threaten anyone over.

Policians simply didn't do that at the time. But retirement, Koch had no reputatn to protect om the knowledge that he was gay. In fact, g out probably would have earned him sympathetic news verage and softened his image at a time when his rerd as mayor was often cricized for reasons related to race relatns and the AIDS crisis — cludg the specific allegatn that he shied away om learship on AIDS for fear that associatn wh a “gay issue” would fan the (te) mors that he was gay.</p><p><span>One theory the </span><em>Tim</em><span> piece nsirs is that, after nyg his sexualy for so many years the face of tractors like Larry Kramer who wanted him outed, Koch felt g out would be tantamount to lettg them w. But if you lie about your sexualy long enough, n simply bee hard to tell the tth. A lot of people stay the closet for expediency, but a lot of people stay there bee of their own shame, and ’s sad.</span></p><p>And ’s sad how mon the need to hi was until not very long ago.</p><p><span>This week’s episo of the </span><em>Very Ser</em><span> podst is an terview wh Jam Kirchick, thor of the new book </span><em><a href=" rel>Secret Cy: The Hidn History of Gay Washgton</a></em><span>, which chronicl the powerful rol that gays (mostly gay men) played our feral ernment om World War II through the Reagan admistratn. Jt bee gays uldn’t announce themselv didn't mean they weren't around — fact, some of them arguably sublimated their sexual sir to drive that propelled them to the heights they achieved Amerin ernment.</span></p><p><span>Jamie’s book scrib the creatn of the morn closet as an artifact of World War II, the Cold War, and the secury state. Gays had long been nsired disgtg, but wh world war they me to be nsired secury threats, at risk of blackmail over their appallg secrets. As a ncept, that this would be a risk mak tuive sense, though Jamie not the surprisg difficulty Amerin officials had when asked to intify any </span><em>specific</em><span> s where gays ernment were blackmailed over their sexual orientatn. And bis, whatever secury risk homosexuals posed was not really a product of their sexual orientatn self, but of the ernment’s and society’s reactn to their sexual orientatn — if you let people eely adm they are gay, then there’s no shameful secret to threaten anyone over. Nohels, gays were vilified, vtigated, and until 1995, prohibed om holdg secury clearanc.</span></p><p><span>Through the s vered Jamie’s book, allegatns of homosexualy were wield as polil weapons — te allegatns and also false on. Jack Kemp, for example, was not gay, and he was fely not part of a right-wg gay bal that ntrolled Ronald Reagan. But that didn’t stop a dre of Republin officials — many of them morat — om phg that fantastil narrative to reporters an effort to block Reagan's nomatn 1980. That madp story is the subject of </span><a href=" rel>an excerpt om Jamie’s book</a><span> that you n read Poli Magaze.</span></p><p><span>The 1980s would brg the AIDS crisis, and an aloof rponse to om the Reagans, spe Nancy Reagan’s terie of gays, rangg om her hairdrser</span><div class="footnote-hoverrd-target"><a class="footnote-anchor" data-ponent-name="FootnoteAnchorToDOM" id="footnote-anchor-1-56246892" href=" rel>1</a></div><span> to Merv Griff. The AIDS crisis would also lead to the wang of the polil closet as had been tablished the 1940s, wh gay polil figur forced out of , often ath. The era also brought the first two openly gay ngrsmen who sought and attaed re-electn: Gerry Studds and Barney Frank, both om Massachetts, and both far om the ialized image of a gay polician you might mold on the basis of a foc group.</span><div class="footnote-hoverrd-target"><a class="footnote-anchor" data-ponent-name="FootnoteAnchorToDOM" id="footnote-anchor-2-56246892" href=" rel>2</a></div></p><p>I enurage you to listen to the podst and, if trigu you, read the book.

The story as a whole is sad and madng — Jamie has, for example, handwrten eds to Ronald Reagan’s draft statement about Rock Hudson’s ath, removg all reference to the closens of Hudson’s relatnship to Ronald and Nancy — but also very tertg, and well worth your time.</p><p>Very serly,</p><p>Josh</p><p><em>P.S.
