Protections needed to stop monkeypox?

With news today that 57 cases of money pox have been discovered in the U.K., should we be putting some protections/mitigations in place to slow the spread and make sure the NHS can cope?

I don’t think lockdown would be appropriate at this stage but should the government be implementing things like mask mandates, social distancing, the rule of 6 and bans on indoor socialising and large events?

Surely we’ve learned from covid that it’s important to act early to prevent the need for more restrictions later?

It is simply too unsafe to be out and about in close proximity and physical contact with each other. They need to bring back work from home order and non essential shop closures again. And bring back furlough please.

Ah yes furlough.

I've just had my latest tax bill which will be spent on paying for the last lot of furlough.

I take it you're not a tax payer?

or you're trolling yawn
