I read on Twitter an anecdote about someone who couldn’t get a monkeypox test because she is not a gay man.

In my experience medicine has a lot of blind spots where they won’t test for things that are considered rare, but it’s possible that it is only considered rare because they’re not testing. I hope monkeypox isn’t one of them.

EDIT: The tweet I saw; https://twitter.com/ahandvanish/status/1541214341558636547
