quote from PBS NEWSHOUR: "Over 99% of the people who get the form of monkeypox currently circulating are likely to survive."

 This is really good news for those who might get infected in the next few years from Monkeypox.

IF the present version only has a 1% kill rate you still don't want to get it but it should reassure people that most people will fully recover from it as well.

The title quote is from Saturday August 6th from PBS News Weekend 2022.
