Monkeypox outbreak

 The new virus monkeypox has been spreading for a couple of weeks in different parts of the world. It is proven that the illness originated from Africa and it spreads quicker than doctors and WHO have accepted. But the good news is that a virus isn’t deadly or hard to overcome. However the main goal for WHO right now, is to control the outbreak of monkeypox and try to stop it as a whole.  At the time when most people thought that the pandemic had stopped, the new virus appeared. We have really bad luck, don't we? Although, there are zero cases in Poland (for now) it’s only a matter of time when it comes to us. And after 3 years of dealing with coronavirus, I’m just hoping that people will act properly. As for now people should educated themselves, listen to doctors and do not trust false information which is spreading all over the Internet (which suggested is a gay disease) source: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/may/28/monkeypox-outbreak-could-be-just-the-peak-of-the-iceber

#MeToo movement "at its finest"

The #MeToo movement has been receiving a pretty noticeable backlash since the start of the Amber Heard and Johnny Deep’s trail. Suddenly, the so-called imperfect victim, as people like to call Heard, now became the number one public enemy. In the trial, in which Deep is trying to save his good name some pretty heavy executions come up which are serious for both parties.  The #MeToo movement was and still is so revolutionary and pivotal in our society. So it’s disgusting to see what it’s happening at the moment. Even though people tend to take Deep’s side and treat him as some kind of godly creature, he is still human and so is Heard. They both made some mistakes and now they’re taking responsibility for it. But in my opinion nobody should be allowed to have a voice in the matter and say that Heard is lying and she deserves everything bad in the world. Female accusers are still treated as if they are lying and this case shows how much more learning people need to have. source: https://w

My Body, My Choice

In the 1973, US made abortion legal. And, now the supreme court wants to push a ban of abortion across the entire country. This happening caused more than 300 pro-choice protests . And even though a clear majority of Americans support an abortion, some of the states has already created ban on it (ex. Louisiana - they would charge women with murder if they end their pregenecy) It’s unimaginable for me that abortion is still considered a murder or is taken away form women who lifes can be at stake. I was especially surprised that a country like the US, which is synonymous with freedom, now struggles with dealing with this matter. In my opinion, it’s inhumane to take away this choice from women and it's even worse to listen to privileged men talking about it. I believe that the key for this “problem” is a proper education about an abortion ( for everybody ) and to finally listen to each other without judgement    “ When abortion is illegal, women die. Forced motherhood is female ensla
