The National Institutes of Health (NIH) after being implicated in funding the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China, has decided to fund a new animal research center in Texas.
The NIH is allegedly trying to develop vaccines for the Ebola virus and other viruses they see as a threat. The project is also raising eyebrows because if the NIH is now starting to develop Ebola vaccines, are they, in fact, about to release the Ebola virus, like they did in Wuhan with covid-19.
Of course, no one is being held responsible for anything that has happened over the past two years, regarding the release of the covid-19 virus that has all but devastated the world economy.
The Texas Biomedical Research Institute (Texas Biomed) and the Southwest National Primate Research Center are working in tandem with the NIH, has been supported also by a $4 million grant from the U.S Economic Development Administration.
“Nonhuman primates are the unsung heroes of biomedical research and are essential to helping us eradicate infectious diseases here in San Antonio and around the world,” says Larry Schlesinger, MD, President and CEO of Texas Biomed. “This complex will enable us to strategically grow our colony and help ensure the nation is better prepared for future pandemics.”
The experiment center is set to be completed in 2023 and will span 200 acres, including four new buildings that will be able to house up to 800 primates.
The center will develop new diagnostic tools, for a variety of viruses, including Ebola, tuberculosis, covid-19 and HIV. The primates housed at the facility will be their test subjects.
The animal experiment center with the use of the primates to develop vaccines in an attempt to get ahead of any future “outbreaks”, of course whether or not it would be intentionally released, remains to be seen, but this is one strategy that pharmaceutical companies invest in the future.
There are concerns that viruses will be turned into weaponized pathogens and it’s no secret that the NIH and NIAID have been embroiled in gain-of-function research, which led to the covid-19 pandemic.
MEANWHILE IN PENNSYLVANIA…
A truck and trailer carrying close to 100 monkeys collided with a dump truck, near Danville Pennsylvania, just off Interstate 80.
Three monkeys managed to escape and were allegedly “hissing” at a witness, the monkeys have since been recaptured and humanely euthanized.
The CDC say they are monitoring local residents who may develop any cold-like symptoms, but a woman who came in contact with the monkeys, is now displaying symptoms, including pink eye and a cough.
In something that is reminiscent of the movie “28 Days Later”, where monkeys escape a research facility, infected with a rage virus that destroys the entire United Kingdom; fiction may be turning into a terrifying reality or at least, it has the potential to.
Harrisburg100 reported:
Michelle Fallon is living a nightmare. And, she’s ready to put that nightmare on record.
The Danville woman is now experiencing symptoms, believed to be related to her close encounter with wild monkeys, when the trailer they were riding in collided with a dump truck and unloaded their cages all over Route 54, close to I-80, on Friday afternoon. (The monkeys were destined for an unidentified Centers for Disease Control lab, in the Midwest.)
The following day, Fallon developed a cough and something that resembled “pink-eye.” And, by Sunday, she was visiting the Geisinger Medical Center emergency room, where infectious disease doctors were consulted. Fallon has since received her first (of 4) preventative rabies shots; as well as a prescription for a 14-day course of Valacyclovir.
The stay-at-home mom, who shared that she was fully vaccinated and received her booster, was also tested for Covid, but the results at the ER were negative.
Fallon is still processing the sequence of events that unfolded on Friday. She pulled over to check on the condition of the accident victims, but she said they were more concerned about press coverage of the incident.
The driver of the truck hauling the monkeys, identified in a press release from PA State Police, as Cody M. Brooks, 31, of Keystone Heights, FL even went so far as to put his hand in the camera of a local Press-Enterprise reporter. “He was very, very upset,” said Fallon. “He was in a panic.” Brooks passenger, Daniel G. Adkins, 59, of Florahome, FL required transport to Geisinger Medical Center for an injury.
