[DNYUZ] Questions Still Remain Over Truck Filled With Monkeys From CDC That Crashed In Pennsylvania.

In the 11 days since a truck hauling 100 monkeys from Mauritius crashed in Pennsylvania, one woman who got close to the scattered crates of monkeys on the highway has been treated for possible symptoms of illness.

And Kenya Airways, which is believed to have transported the monkeys to the United States, has decided not to renew its expiring contract to ship research primates here.

No other reports of possible illness related to the crash have emerged, according to state and federal health officials, who said it was not known whether the Pennsylvania woman’s symptoms were related to the cynomolgus macaques, which were being quarantined and monitored for diseases.

Experts said that direct exposure to monkey saliva or feces could be dangerous, but that the risk of a broader outbreak was low.



Ok, why aren't these animals going through USDA quarantine facilities? These aren't domestic animals, and should have been under USDA rules and jurisdiction. Vegas style. What are the odds our troll Fraudci is somehow connected?

#7  Its kind of like a timer...when we get down to 12 monkeys they lock us in cages and put trackers in our body.

Wait a second.

#2  Short answer they where in route to the CDC which is a USDA quartatine site. Believe me USDA doesn't have enough space at their port of entry sites to do this.For example most zoos are USDA certified for this.Which is the reason you shouldn't smuggle your cute little doggie into the zoo, They could have it offed for breaking USDA quarantine.
