Wash Your Hands

It seems that no one understands
Monkeypox is not spread by glands
Just one little touch
Infects an whole bunch
Whatever you do, DON'T SHAKE HANDS!*

*Dr. Fauci says, "Sex is 
not necessary, skin-to-skin 
contact is!" so no more 
fistbumps!

Take Tom's advice and wear an hazmat suit around other people! NYC reports "hundreds" of polio incidents in their sewer system, so with COVID-19, polio, and monkeypox, kissing is DANGEROUS! Aloha!

Brilliant! Now write the 2022 Christmas Carole, "All I want for Christmas is an hazmat suit, an hazmat suit, yes an hazmat suit, so I can wish you Merry Christmas!" Aloha!
