### Monkeypox Outbreak, Language Shift to MSM

- **Episode:** [1472: Smugly](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1472-smugly.md)
- **Published:** 2022-07-28

The public health narrative surrounding monkeypox has shifted from "gay and bisexual men" to the clinical term "men who have sex with men" (MSM). This change is attributed to pressure from the "queer community" to avoid stigmatization. The hosts revisit the "patient zero" story involving a woman who touched a monkey after a truck crash in Pennsylvania, noting the media has largely abandoned that origin story.
