    COVID and STI Monkey On The Loose In Mississippi

    Is this what they now call an 'incentive' to get the so-called 'vaccines' or is this the new monkeypox?

    ‘Aggressive’ monkey infected with COVID and STIs running loose in Mississippi after transport truck overturns: sheriff

    An “aggressive” monkey infected with COVID and multiple sexually transmitted diseases is running loose through Mississippi after a truck overturned on an Interstate and released a pack of the diseased lab primates, officials said...

    The 40-pound monkeys carry COVID, hepatitis C, and herpes and are “aggressive to humans,” the department warned. Humans should not handle the animals without PPE, it added...

    It’s unclear how many monkeys were packed into the truck, but all those who escaped were quickly seized and euthanized — except for one still on the lam...

    The sheriff’s office was still scouring the area for the loose monkey with assistance from the Mississippi Wildlife and Fisheries and an “animal disposal company” as of 2 p.m. Tuesday, according to its post on Facebook...
    That was yesterday. Today... UPDATE: Tulane releases additional statement reassuring that escaped monkeys were pathogen-free

    ...Sheriff Randy Johnson said they were told by the driver that there were a total of 21 monkeys on the truck and 6 had gotten loose.

    The monkeys weigh around 40 pounds and the driver told deputies that they are aggressive to humans and require PPE to handle. The sheriff’s department said the driver also told them the monkeys carry hepatitis C, herpes, and COVID, but Tulane corrected that report by saying that they are not infectious.

    Deputies are urging the public not to approach any monkeys they may see. If you see one, call 911 and report the location.

    Law enforcement shot and killed five of the escaped monkeys.

    Tulane University was immediately notified and they ended up sending a team to come get the monkeys this evening...
    So... There are between 1 and 6 monkeys running loose in Mississippi. They are 'aggressive' and may be infected with COVID and STIs; but, they are not infectious.

    What was it I used to complain about in this section regarding muddled messaging?

    We have two statements that are a little conflicting:
    "but all those who escaped were quickly seized and euthanized"
    and then:
    "Law enforcement shot and killed five of the escaped monkeys"

    I think LE shot the monkeys then "seized them", they're easier to seize when dead.

    And hopefully, they were more than 6 feet away when they shot them, and were wearing protective masks when doing so.

    This really should have happened in Florida.

      A woman in Mississippi bagged one

      (Headline USA) One of the monkeys that escaped last week after a truck overturned on a Mississippi roadway was shot and killed early Sunday by a woman who says she feared for the safety of her children. Jessica Bond Ferguson said she was alerted early Sunday by her 16-year-old son who said he thought he had […]

      Beware of people who are certain they are right. That certainty allows them to justify almost any act in pursuit of their goals. ( Jack campbell , Guardian)
