A truck crash in Mississippi has exposed the disturbing reality of taxpayer-funded animal experiments at a Fauci-linked research facility, with three infected lab monkeys still roaming free after escaping into the wild.
Truck Crash Reveals Dangerous Transport of Lab Primates
A truck hauling aggressive Rhesus monkeys crashed on Interstate 59 near mile marker 117 in Jasper County, Mississippi, on Tuesday. The driver initially told law enforcement the monkeys were infected with Hepatitis C, herpes, and COVID-19, prompting officials to kill many of the escaped animals. Three monkeys remained at large as of Wednesday morning, raising serious public safety concerns about these taxpayer-funded experiments.

Conflicting Information Creates Public Health Confusion
The Jasper County Sheriff’s Department later received contradictory information from Tulane University, which claimed the primates were not infectious. This dangerous miscommunication highlights the reckless nature of transporting potentially dangerous research animals. The driver had warned that handlers needed personal protective equipment, yet Tulane subsequently downplayed any health risks to the public after the damage was already done.

Fauci-Funded Facility Has History of Safety Violations
The Tulane National Biomedical Research Center, recently rebranded to soften its controversial image, has received massive federal funding for questionable animal experiments. The facility obtained $21 million from Fauci’s NIAID division for AIDS experiments on monkeys and an additional $10 million for COVID vaccine testing. This taxpayer-funded operation confined 5,883 monkeys as of 2023, representing a massive waste of public resources for dubious scientific purposes.
A 2014 safety incident at Tulane resulted in two rhesus macaques contracting melioidosis due to sloppy biosafety practices. CDC inspectors found staff frequently entered select agent labs without appropriate protective clothing, creating serious contamination risks. One staff member tested positive for exposure antibodies, demonstrating the facility’s ongoing inability to maintain basic safety standards while handling dangerous pathogens.
Why are Florida tax dollars being used to pay for transgender monkey experiments with funding secured by Fauci's NIH?

Trump Administration Offers Hope for Reform
White Coat Waste Project has successfully pushed for primate lab closures under previous Trump leadership. The FDA canceled nicotine addiction experiments and relocated monkeys to sanctuaries in 2018, later closing its largest primate laboratory in Arkansas. The Department of Veterans Affairs is ahead of schedule in phasing out primate testing, showing how effective leadership can end wasteful animal abuse while protecting taxpayers from dangerous government overreach.
