Huh? COVID-19 is caused by SARS-COV-2, which was entirely unknown at the outset.
In contrast there are about 2k Monkeypox cases per year, still lots of unknowns but pandemic potential is near nil IMO.
Your assertion is as speculative as making up that any kind of disease has mutated and has a new transmission mechanism. As I said, there would need to be actual evidence before this gets any serious consideration. Just imagining the possibility because we've recently had another diseaed spread doesn't count for anything.
>the media gets to run with it like Covid it could become a pandemic.
