Eric Feigl Ding is back, this time to talk about mpox

"They don't actually know the details of transmission, they don't know exactly what the mechanism is, but we think it's close contact and possibly there's an open debate about airborne aerosol droplet spread as well...the severity according to WHO currently is about 3.5% mortality. It may not be that high because we're missing a lot of undiagnosed cases in Africa. But it's still definitely not a mild illness and there is serious mortality and especially among vulnerable children, they are majority of the cases."
