Monkeypox disease now has a new name: mpox. The World Health Organization announced the long-awaited change on Monday, saying the disease's original name plays into "racist and stigmatizing language."

What the fuck does the M stand for? How does this reduce stigma? Seems like it does the opposite: “Don’t say monkey because it reminds everybody of black people!”
