WHAT ARE THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS?

WHAT ARE THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS?

Most people infected with monkeypox will recover within several weeks although some cases are more severe than others. The time between the exposure to monkeypox and first signs of symptoms can range between 5 to 21 days. The symptoms of this virus are split into two phases:

Invasion phase (0-5 days)

  • Fever
  • Intense headaches
  • Swollen lymph nodes
  • Back pain
  • Muscle ache (Myalgia)
  • Intense lack of energy

Skin eruption phase (10 days – 3 weeks)

1-3 days after the fever, various stages of rash appear. This often begins on the face and then spreads elsewhere on the body.

The rash can evolve from lesions with flat bases to small fluid-filled blisters and pustules. Crusts will occur approximately 10 days after fever and can take three weeks to completely disappear.

Kamala Harris Is Far From An Enigma

Kamala Harris Is Far From An Enigma By Ben Emos and Tony Bruce | Wednesday, September  25 , 2024 | 7 min read Recently, critics have argued that Vice President Kamala Harris hasn’t fully fleshed out her policies, raising concerns about the clarity of her agenda. Interestingly, this critique mirrors rhetoric often used by former President Donald Trump, who is known for diverting attention from more controversial issues. In this case, it could be seen as a way to shift the spotlight away from growing unease around the GOP’s Project 2025 and the more symbolic “eating of cats and dogs” controversy in Springfield, Ohio. Project 2025, the Republican-backed policy framework, has stirred concern due to its extreme deregulation measures and rollbacks on protections for vulnerable communities. Critics of the plan argue that it represents a significant threat to public health, environmental safety, and economic equality. The “eating of cats and dogs” metaphor, while not literal, encapsulates ...

The Truth Behind Trump’s Tale of a Harrowing Helicopter Ride and Emergency Landing That Never Happened

The Truth Behind Trump’s Tale of a Harrowing Helicopter Ride and Emergency Landing That Never Happened. By Mary Jones and Ben Emos | Thursday, August  15 , 2024 | 6 min read During Donald Trump’s political campaigns, particularly in 2016 and 2020, he often  employed personal attacks and misinformation to undermine his opponents. In 2016, Trump targeted Hillary Clinton by focusing on her husband’s extramarital affairs, hoping to tarnish her public image. By 2020, his strategy shifted to Hunter Biden’s business ventures, with Trump attempting to discredit Joe Biden by associating him with his son’s dealings. In both cases, the goal was clear: damage the opponent’s reputation through a blend of accusations, half-truths, and outright falsehoods. In yet another one of his colorful anecdotes, former President Donald Trump claimed he experienced an emergency helicopter landing alongside former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown. Trump described the situation as a tense moment, suggesti...

Donald Trump's Greenland Proposal: A Threat to NATO and a Gift to Vladimir Putin

Donald Trump's Greenland Proposal: A Threat to NATO and a Gift to Vladimir Putin By Ben Emos & Don Terry | Wednesday, January 15, 2025 | 2 min read Donald Trump’s intentions regarding the world’s largest island remain uncertain, but he has not ruled out the possibility of resorting to military threats against a NATO member. Such a move could invoke Article 5 of the NATO charter, which treats an attack on one member as an attack on all. This prospect poses a significant diplomatic challenge for the alliance, potentially destabilizing its cohesion and advancing Vladimir Putin’s goal of undermining NATO’s unity. During a news conference at his Mar-a-Lago estate, Trump suggested he could not dismiss the idea of using military or economic pressure to acquire Greenland—or even the Panama Canal. Adding fuel to speculation, his son, Donald Trump Jr., visited Greenland, raising questions about their intentions. The U.S. already maintains the Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, a...
