A truck carrying a large supply of Moderna vaccines crashed on Interstate-79 near Morgantown, West Virginia early Friday morning — and officials refuse to answer any questions about it.
The crash took Hazmat cleaning crews 21 hours to clear after the truck lost control and went through a concrete barrier.
“A tractor trailer, carrying Moderna COVID-19 vaccines to be sent as aid to a foreign country, lost control on the interstate, struck a concrete barrier and went down over the embankment approximately 30 feet and rolled on its side,” Monongalia County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. “The driver was trapped inside of the vehicle and had to be extricated. He was transported and treated for minor injuries at Ruby Memorial Hospital.”
The statement went on to say that a hazmat team was brought in to clear “oil and anti-freeze” for 21 hours.
“The West Virginia Center for Preparedness helped recover the vaccine, but it is unknown how much was saved,” WV Metro News reported.
Timcast reached out to the West Virginia Center for Threat Preparedness and spoke to Tim Priddy, the incident commander for COVID. We asked if vaccines had been scattered outside the vehicle or if they were contained inside. He said that he was unable to speak to the press, but would have their press information officer call us back. There was no return call by time of publishing.
The Monongalia County Sheriff’s Office, Monongalia Hazmat Team, and Governor Jim Justice’s office all refused to answer questions about the crash.
When contacted by Timcast and questioned about if vaccines spilled from the vehicle, the Monongalia Hazmat Team replied that “we are unable to release any information at this time.”
The Monongalia County Sheriff’s Office also declined to answer questions . . ."

No idea if this is true, but if so, very interesting. The shipment may have been on its way to Ghana...?

Bad news about this shipment:
The vehicle transporting these #COVID19 vaccines to an airfield from the storage facility in West Virginia literally fell into a ditch in the early hours of Aug 27.
Unclear how many doses were recovered from the crash, and no new ETA is available.

A shipment of #COVID19 vaccines is scheduled to depart for Ghana on August 28 via @UNICEFGhana.
Specific vaccine and quantities are not yet available, but the batch will likely consist of most or all of the 1,229,620 Moderna doses donated by the USA through #COVAX.

https://wvmetronews.com/2021/08/28/truck-that-crashed-on-i-79-was-carrying-moderna-vaccine/ not sure about DoD though. My link mentions DoH.
A few of these in private hands at a large laboratory might prove extremely interesting.
Understand the Japanese have stopped at least one brand because of unidentified matter in the proposed shots.
It's a similar question one could ask about the French Marquis blowing up Nazi ammunition trains headed toward the front.
That’s what I thought.

Aren’t the vials supposed to be kept frozen so what now?
That’s pretty damn creepy. Surprised I haven’t heard of this possible conspiracy theory before your post. Seems somewhat possible and/or believable.
Very possible that the truck had hospital radio active waste on it. This could be explanation on why airspace was shutdown for monitoring for 21 hours.
