  1. “there’s no need to isolate.” Really? You can just walk around like that and it’s okay? πŸ€”

    1. Yes you can walk around and it is not contagious like covid or the flu. Transmission happens with close personal contact and if you get it, there is no treatment and you just have to wait it out.

  2. When you have air quote’s like ” not highly contagous”, then it is contagious in a crowded place.

    1. No it is spread through close contact , it doesnt have to be sex , the liquid inside the bumps is infectious until the scabs heal , so if you touch someone who has the rash you can catch it or if you touch the bedding they have been using , or sharing cutlery or if you get coughed on it is also in the droplets .

  3. I don’t know honey I went on business and came back with this crap. Explain that to your wife.

  4. The end times of pride not of the Father but of the world how great it is being eliminated

  5. When you have air quote’s like ” not highly contagous”, then it is contagious in a crowded place.

  6. When you have air quote’s like ” not highly contagous”, then it is contagious in a crowded place.

  7. It’ll be fun seeing what conspiracy theorists come up with for this one.
