Monkeypox has been a hot topic of debate among medical professionals over the past year, especially as more cases are being reported around the globe. Densely populated cities and areas like Los Angeles and New York have already declared a state of emergency, and it is expected that others will surface with reports of restrictions to help combat the rising spread of the virus.

It's still festival season and people are trying to enjoy these warm summer nights as much as possible, but Thomas is taking the safe route.
