A monkey infected with dangerous viruses escaped after a truck carrying experimental animals overturned in Pennsylvania, USA. According to the data, the container contained experimental monkeys infected with hepatitis C, herpes, and coronavirus.
Although five monkeys were quickly apprehended after the incident, one was reported to be still free. He crossed the highway and went into the forest.
Representatives of the local authorities urged the community to be cautious. According to them, this monkey poses a serious health risk, especially being aggressive and potentially attacking people.
The truck was reportedly traveling from Tulane University in Florida to a research laboratory. According to The Irish Sun, the driver knew he was transporting "dangerous biomaterial."
Rescue services are currently continuing work to locate and neutralize the animal.
