WHO recommends men who have sex with men reduce sex partners to limit monkeypox risk

A sort of redux of the AIDS/HIV epidemic? I blogged here about it in mid May 2022.

It appears that government organisations responsible for health tried to suppress this similarity for several months.

Safer sex used to be one of the recommendations before and during the AIDS/HIV epidemic.

This makes it all the more surprising why the WHO just declared it a health emergency despite relatively few cases and slow transmission. It is also not a very lethal disease. Least, but not last, a vaccine is available.
