Veterinarians have since closely monitored the gorillas to make sure they have been eating and drinking enough to recover on their own. The park north of San Diego has been closed to the public as part of California’s lockdown efforts to curb coronavirus cases.
Peterson said one of the gorillas, a 49-year-old silverback named Winston, had pneumonia, likely caused by the virus, as well as heart disease.
She said Winston was put on antibiotics and heart medication, and received an antibody treatment — a therapy to block the virus from infecting cells.
Peterson said some of the gorillas will get the COVID-19 vaccine, a supply not permitted for use in people.
“The hope is that we would be able to vaccinate wildlife that would be susceptible to illness and then prevent them from ever catching it,” she said.

Gorilla didn’t:
- wear mask, or
- compulsively wash hands.
And, he probably dined “out” with other gorillas, too.
Listen to Fauci. /S
Have the gorillas been given the vaccine shots?
>>Have the gorillas been given the vaccine shots?
“YOU DO and I’ll give you such a pinch!”
Thank God! I was really worried...
COVID-19 struck an ape
Was as sick as a rotten peeled grape
To help stop the spread
By a mask held with dread
The mask bearer took on a new shape
“Peterson said some of the gorillas will get the COVID-19 vaccine, a supply not permitted for use in people.”
Notice we don’t have enough vaccines to vaccinate all the humans, but somehow we have spare infrastructure to concoct versions of these vaccines just for the handful of great apes in zoos.
So this is why Gruesom is opening the Zoos?
So the apes will evolve with Covid protection.
Those apes are our new parents.
Wouldn’t you like to be the guy shoving a swab in its nose all the way to the brain stem. And live to tell about it.
Better not take any chances. Put two masks on him, maybe three.
I can only shake my head. I can understand the people at the top having no shame at this senile imbecile in office, they wanted him there.
But the rank-and-file voters...I don’t get it. They actually think this is fine. They are lost to me.
