A truck carrying 100 monkeys crashed in rural Pennsylvania. Three of those monkeys escaped, but were reportedly caught and strangely killed within about 24 hours. The insane thing is that these monkeys were brought into New York City from the African island nation of Mauritius, and were apparently on their way to an unspecified CDC-approved quarantine facility. At least one person who was in contact with the primates got sick with whatever disease the monkeys had. Not sure why anyone would expect much from the CDC after the last few years, but at this point it seems like they're basically kicking off the plot to the 1995 movie Outbreak, starring Dustin Hoffman, Renee Russo, and Morgan Freeman. Definitely not what we need right now. Government competence at its finest.
