If they had to rename it from monkey pox, why not go full scientific like COVID-19 (SARS CoV-2)? Mpox sounds like a post-ironic fedora core punk band.
Mpox is not a great name. The virus is called the monkey pox virus so that’s no good but the virus is also called MPV, MPXV, or hMPXV and those are okay. I think we should go with simian plague.
Ah man, I feel like I’m coming down with a video format
Simian Plague sounds like either a description of Planet of the Apes or a metal band.
