Sebastian Köhn (He/Him), George Soros Open Society Foundations Division Director in sexual health, recounts in The Guardian:

I got monkeypox and it’s been a total nightmare

When New York Pride festivities kicked off I was aware that monkeypox was an emerging issue—especially for gay men—but … I had sex with several guys over the weekend.

Then a week later, on 1 July, I started feeling very fatigued. I had a high fever with chills and muscle aches, and my lymph nodes were so swollen they were protruding two inches out of my throat. …

I’m a 39-year-old man from Sweden, living in Brooklyn and working in philanthropy. For the past decade, my work has primarily focused on sexual and reproductive health and rights, so I followed the outbreak from the very beginning.

And then a whole bunch of Sorrows of Job happened to this 39-year-old Swedish immigrant named Köhn living in Brooklyn and working for George Soros in sexual health, which must totally be the fault of the NYC health bureaucrats, as opposed to him showing his New York Pride by having sex with several guys over the weekend.

Look, it’s not called Shame Month, is it? So therefore everything he feels like doing should inculcate a sense of Pride in him and therefore it’s your fault if his self-indulgence results in anorectal lesions.
