[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 57972, member: 83"] The government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic hasn't always been up to par with citizens' standards, though it seems some politicians are taking a better course of action as monkeypox continues to spread. On Friday (July 29) evening, New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced that she's declaring a "State Disaster Emergency to strengthen ongoing efforts to confront the monkeypox outbreak."

Hochul also pointed out that 1 in 4 monkeypox cases in America have originated in New York, which is precisely why she's so eager to generate a quick response that will combat the virus and protect more people. As [I]TMZ[/I] notes, the emergency declaration comes just one day after the New York State Commissioner of Health referred to monkeypox as an "[URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/monkeypox-outbreak-now-a-global-emergency-declares-who-news.155379.html']imminent threat to public health[/URL]." It's been noted that the viral disease "is almost never fatal," though one of its most horrific side effects is the rashes and lesions that begin to form on extremities and genitals among the infected. At this time, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have listed New York and California as the states with the two highest recorded numbers of cases (1,345 and 799 respectively). Hochul's newly implemented executive order will allow for EMS personnel, pharmacists, midwives, physicians, and certified nurse practitioners to administer vaccinations.
