a label given to diseases that are highly transmissible and have the potential to spread uncontrollably.<\/p>\n<p>The latest outbreak of <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/dog-catches-monkeypox-from-french-gay-owners\">monkeypox<\/a>, which is typically contained in Africa, spread to all corners of the earth, leading the World Health Organization to <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/breaking-who-declares-monkeypox-global-health-emergency\/\">declare<\/a> it a global health emergency in July.<\/p>\n<p>In the United States alone, over 26,000 cases have been <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/sex-between-men-fueling-monkeypox-spread-report\">reported<\/a>, almost entirely among men who have <a href=\"https:\/\/thepostmillennial.com\/senator-wiener-shares-gay-fetish-festival-monkeypox-protection-tips-includes-covering-up-potential-poxes\">sex<\/a> with other men.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the fact that the variants being combined already existed prior to the declaration of emergency, the research has been allowed to continue, however, the National Institutes of Health is reportedly &#8220;planning to reexamine&#8221; the plan.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking with the Daily Mail, Rutgers University microbiologist Dr. Richard Ebright cautioned against such studies, suggesting that, &#8220;The risk-benefit ratio is essentially infinite, comprising potentially existential risks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Citing the dangers of creating a virus in a lab, Dr. Ebright warned that a more severe variant, if exposed to the public, could &#8220;spread beyond current at-risk populations to the general population.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, directed by Dr. Anthony Fauci, is conducting research involving the creation of a more severe strain of monkeypox\u00a0in an effort to help<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1711239,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[547],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1711236","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-bongino-report"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1711236","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1711236"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1711236\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1711239"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1711236"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1711236"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1711236"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
