AN escape of lab monkeys on a Pennsylvania highway has sparked fears of a virus outbreak after a woman who came into contact with them later fell ill.
Michelle Fallon stopped to help after a truck carrying 100 cynomolgus macaques crashed on Interstate 80, spilling animal crates across the tarmac.
State troopers said four of the primates were on the loose and warned the public not to try to catch them on Friday evening.
They have all since been accounted for.
Now it has emerged a passerby who was at the scene is being treated for symptoms of an unknown illness.
Michelle, of nearby Danville, was driving behind the truck when it crashed on the way to a research facility.
She got out to help the driver with the smashed crates, initially believing they were transporting cats.
When she put her hand on a cage, one of the three monkeys inside hissed at her but she was not bitten or scratched.
She said she also stepped in animal feces amid the chaos as four monkeys ran away into woodland.
The next day she developed Covid-like symptoms including a cough and pink eye.
Doctors gave her the first of four rabies injections together with an anti-viral drug.
She said on Facebook she was contacted by the CDC and is being monitored for symptoms of rabies and monkey herpes virus B.

Monkey fever?
Isn’t this how nearly horror movie of the 90s got started?
Make note to self. Leave the monkeys be.

Many horror movies have started with a similar scenario.
Well, here is a reason for national lockdown, mandatory masking, and vaccinate against everything known to man.
There is a monkey on the loose. All caps for those who are not in fear .. M.O.N.K.E.Y!
Hide under your beds.
They also gave her Valtrex. Interesting.
Fauci and his minions must be utterly destroyed. They will eventually loose a virus that will kill us all.
Isn’t this straight from the movie “OUTBREAK?”
"Doctors gave her the first of four rabies injections together with an anti-viral drug.
She said on Facebook she was contacted by the CDC and is being monitored for symptoms of rabies and monkey herpes virus B."
She needs to sue NOW to learn what she was exposed to.
Isnt Valtrex for genital herpes? Maybe it helps with Monkey herpes
“They also gave her Valtrex.”
But I’ll bet they’re not going to offer Ivermectin — the eee-vil concoction.
So if anyone posts her illness was caused by a leak from a lab will work hey be banned from social media.
What are these monster scientists doing transporting infected monkeys across the country?
Hopefully not future documentaries...
Monkey Pox? I don’t know but the Valtrex isn’t too safe either from what I read.
Those lying liars at CDC know exactly what this is.
