San Francisco's waste water has detectable Monkey Pox

Once monkeypox is detectable in the wastewater, it’s game over for eradication; the sewers are swarming with rats. It will become endemic. We will need to resume universal vaccination against smallpox/monkeypox.

Monkeypox has been found in the wastewater in San Francisco.

Wow.

Monkey Pox is big in San Fran.  One thing confuses me though.  Once again we're faced with a disease that only affects a small part of the population but they're asking the entire society to jump thru hoops to "fight the spread".

I just don't get it.
