A truck carrying around 100 monkeys that crashed in Pennsylvania is now sparking fears of infection after a woman who came into contact with the primates began to feel unwell.
Michelle Fallon, from Danville near Scranton, was driving directly behind the vehicle when it crashed, throwing animal crates all over the highway and smashing some to pieces.
Four of the 100 animals escaped and were seen sitting among the wreckage before they fled.
Police say they have now all been accounted for, with three known to have been euthanised.
Fallon said she got out to help both the driver and the animals in their cages, initially believing them to be cats. When she approached and put her hand on the cage, she says the monkey hissed at her.
The day following the accident, Fallon suddenly developed a cough and pink-eye, which became so bad that she had to visit the emergency room at Geisinger Medical Center in Danville.

More Fauci “gain of function”?
Everyone always wants to pet the bison.
Don't.
Or, if you just absolutely have to pet the darn bison...
Fer God’s sake...WASH YER PAWS!
Are these Blood Sucking Monkeys From West Mifflin, PA?
Here’s a question, if one of those monkeys was sick, what was it doing in that load...
Sounds like a sci-fi b-movie plot, but what the NIH and CDC are up to is anybody’s guess, and it’s for certain politically oriented.
Only God knows that.
28 days later...
Marburg?
Ebola?
Gee, might be nice to know what I was exposed to if I’m supposed to be seeking medical attention. I highly doubt we’ll ever be told what they were infected with, though.
Genetic engineering on viruses and bacteria has reached the point where it’s more dangerous than if the kid next door was playing with fully functional nuclear weapons. At least the kid could only blow up your town, while these “researchers” can at any moment unleash a devastating plague on the entire world.
I’m glad it was 100 monkeys and not 12 monkeys.

In the made-for-TV movie, this is when they cue the ominous music.
Motaba virus.
If you rolled up on a scene like that, it might be best to start blazing away to prevent the furry plague carriers from infecting humans or local animal populations and then humans. It might also be worthwhile to have a can of gas and rags ready in case you need to take out the trailer and remaining crates.
There were 100 of them. You'd need an AR-12 with mixed bird and buckshot if more than 4 had escaped.
The whole situation seems suspicious as hell. Guy driving a pickup truck with a trailer from New York to Missouri (not flying) which means multiple overnight stops on their way to a "CDC approved" lab.
