If you didn't see the news, 4 or 5 days ago a truck loaded with monkeys that were experimented on was in an accident in PA. Some woman (stupid, stupid woman!) got out of her car and was "helping". She is now on a one-month quarantine for several different diseases including COVID. According to her Facebook post, she has COVID but most places are just reporting she has pink eye. You can read the story below.

Lab test monkey on the loose after truck crash in Pennsylvania

Do you think we need to be worried? I feel like the media is "underplaying this" because it would be bad for politics. They are trying to sweep everything under the rug because primaries are coming up. People aren't going to forget these last two years though. And if this ends up being serious and they did little about it... People will lose it.

Right. If it affects PA, it could affect the entire Eastern Seaboard, which could have an effect on the whole country.
Those monkeys & whatever they were infected with should be national news.

I'm more worried about getting bit by an SIV infected monkey.

SIV | Causes, Symptoms & Treatment

SIV, infectious agent of the genus Lentivirus in the family Retroviridae. The virus infects primates of the infraorder Simiiformes, which includes the so-called anthropoids—apes, monkeys, and humans. SIV is transmitted through contact with infected body fluids such as blood. It is widespread among

I saw loads of memes floating around with this very movie. It is crazy how this keeps happening. I hope to God it isn't not as bad as that movie or any of the other ones. I think 28 Days Later was another movie that has similar undertones but that deals with zombies. I mean the bible mentioned the dead walking the earth so it has me a bit concerned over here LOL

That's everywhere and China is accused to taking data from many countries and I am sure they are boiling something behind. Recently Australia is also accused them to steal information from Covid database.

They have like undercover agents or something working in labs. They are sneaky! I have no issue with Chinese people but I will never trust a Chinese person who has worked for or is working in close relation to the CCP. I mean this country legit keeps tabs on their people even after they have fully immigrated somewhere, like becoming legal citizens and all. It is freaking wild. They are control freaks.

Wuhan was funded by the US government. Obama actually put in bills to prevent this but under Trump, that Fauci guy was able to get rid of it and start funding it again. The reason Obama and many other world leaders wanted to stop it was to prevent this very thing from happening, lab leaks. So this is not only on the CCP but the US government.
