"A troop of monkeys attacked a lab technician in India and stole blood samples of patients
who tested positive for COVID-19, authorities confirmed on Friday.
The eccentric attack happened this week after a laboratory technician was walking on the campus of a state-run medical college in Meerut near Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh state. “Monkeys grabbed and fled with the blood samples of four COVID-19 patients who are undergoing treatment.
Environmentalists in India are monitoring increased attacks and disturbances from monkeys on people, attributing the uptick as a result of the destruction of natural habitats forcing the animals closer to urban areas."
