Anybody you know deals with Rhesus or Macaque monkeys?

These monkeys almost all carry HepB which is 80% fatal in humans. Any bite or scratch may be the death of you.

These monkeys have been released in parts of Florida and Spain and are endemic to Japan and Taiwan.

Isn't there a vaccine for Hep B? What is the hepatitis vaccine for? Not that I probably trust any vaccine today but if you already got it?

Hep C yes.

Yeah, and it only costs 1G per dose, from our friends at (((gilead))), so basically 85G to get treated.

Honestly, I'd simply figure out some way of getting my hands on doses of the Covid vaccine and a few dozen small animal traps. Dose the monkey's you catch, then release them back into the wild so the troop doesn't make any dramatic changes. Be sure to employ some method of tracking, so you don't waste doses on repeat trappings.
