Monkeys escape from US research lab
Police are on the hunt for 43 monkeys that escaped from a research facility in South Carolina after a keeper left their pen open.
The rhesus macaque fugitives busted out of Alpha Genesis, a company that breeds primates for medical testing and research, and are on the loose in a part of the state known as the Lowcountry.
"Please do not attempt to approach these animals under any circumstances," police said and urged residents to keep their doors and windows securely closed and to report any sightings immediately.
Police say the research company has told them that because of their size, the monkeys have not yet been tested on and "are too young to carry disease".

"Not yet been tested on" ...
I wonder how long it will take before some that actually are infected also decides to bolt.

The monkeys being tested on, are in much more secure enclosures and which don't lead directly outside. To escape an actual lab facility is rather impossible. There are tons of doors and security doors that need keycards and ♥♥♥♥.

"absconded from a Lowcountry breeding facility with a history of security challenges and violations."
I don`t see it as impossible.

A breeding facility is not a lab, it's a lot less secure.

My first thought. But the times and context say, The Stand from Stephen King.
