Cops are warning residents in rural South Carolina to shut their doors and windows after at least 43 monkeys escaped from a bio-research lab.

The rhesus macaques slipped out of an Alpha Genesis facility in Yemassee — which is just off I-95 in the south of the state — on Wednesday night.

“We want to assure the community that there is no health risk associated with these animals,” the Yemassee Police Department said.

Residents are being told not to approach the loose monkeys and instead call 911 and report the sighting.

It’s unclear how the primates managed to break out.

Were these monkeys subjected to gain-of-function research?

Escaped or let loose? That’s a large number of escapees.

Not my bio-research lab. Not my monkeys.

Are they absolutely certain? I heard they were all infected with and carriers of the “Rage” virus. We remember how that turned out last time, 28 days later....

People think they want a monkey.

They really don’t want monkeys.

But really, the democrats forgot to lock the cages after they sent them to the ballot box.

Sets my mind right at ease. The PD has plenty of of PhD biologists on staff to assess the threat, I'm sure. This couldn't possibly happen with the escaped rhesus macaques...

Ebola triggers a paradoxical combination of blood clots and hemorrhages. The patient’s bloodstream throws clots, and the clots lodge everywhere, especially in the spleen, liver, and brain. This is called D.I.C., or disseminated intravascular coagulation. D.I.C. is a kind of stroke through the whole body. No one knows how Ebola triggers blood-clotting. As the strokelike condition progresses and capillaries in the internal organs become jammed with clots, the hemorrhaging begins: blood leaks out of the capillaries into the surrounding tissues. This blood refuses to coagulate. It is grossly hemolyzed, which means that its cells are broken. You are stuffed with clots, and yet you bleed like a hemophiliac who has been in a fistfight. Your skin develops bruises and goes pulpy, and tears easily, and becomes speckled with purple hemorrhages called petechiae, and erupts in a maculopapular rash that has been likened to tapioca pudding. Your intestines may fill up completely with blood. Your eyeballs may also fill with blood. Your eyelids bleed. You vomit a black fluid. You may suffer a hemispherical stroke, which paralyzes one whole side of the body and is invariably fatal in a case of Ebola. In the pre-agonal stage of the disease (the endgame), the patient leaks blood containing huge quantities of virus from the nose, mouth, anus, and eyes, and from rips in the skin. In the agonal stage, death comes from hemorrhage and shock.

12 Monkeys.

That’s the first thing I thought of two.
Escaped monkeys?
Bio labs?

hmmm....
