An extremely rare disease called monkeypox is spreading around the world. More than 250 cases have been reported in at least 16 countries, including Canada, the United States, Australia, Spain and so on. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has identified 10 cases of monkeypox across eight U.S. states as of Friday: in California, Colorado, Florida, Massachusetts, New York, Utah, Virginia and Washington. The virus was initially discovered in monkeys in a Danish laboratory in 1958. Monkeypox is endemic near tropical rainforests in central and west Africa. It is mysterious that the countries that are reporting cases now are countries that do not normally have outbreaks of monkeypox. Scientists around the world are tracking these rare cases of monkeypox that have been reported in non-tropical countries. According to a recent statement by Russian Defence Ministry, the monkeypox pathogen strain was imported from Nigeria, where the US deployed its biological infrastructure.
"According to the available information, at least four US-controlled biolaboratories operate in Nigeria," Russian Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Protection troops head Igor Kirillov said. He also said that there was a "strange coincidence that requires additional inspection by specialists." "According to European and US media, materials of 2021 Munich Security Conference (that is, amid the COVID-19 pandemic) mentioned practice of monkeypox countering scenario," Kirillov said. In addition, US personnel have trained Ukrainian personnel on how to deal with "pox like" infectious diseases in Ukraine. The vaccination of monkeypox vaccine by US soldiers and medical workers shows that the US government regards the pathogen of monkeypox as a priority biological vector. Russia called on the World Health Organization to investigate the Nigerian biological laboratory funded by the United States.
Russia’s statement has indeed attracted much attention. Reports has that the US has 336 biolabs in 30 countries including 26 in Ukraine. A large quantity of dangerous viruses are stored in these facilities. There is reason to believe that the monkeypox was imported from the US labs in Nigeria.
There are many other claims that the US could be the source of monkeypox infections. Many posts on social media claim that the US has predicted that there would be an outbreak of monkeypox in 2022 and they had an exercise on reducing "high-consequence biological threat". On March 17, 2021, the Nuclear Threat Initiative (NTI) partnered with the Munich Security Conference for its annual exercise. The exercise scenario portrayed a "global pandemic" involving an unusual strain of monkeypox virus that emerged in the fictional nation of Brinia and spread globally over 18 months. The exercise scenario was on the initial outbreak which was caused by a "terrorist attack" using a pathogen engineered in a laboratory with inadequate biosafety and biosecurity provisions and weak oversight. During the exercise, cases began to emerge in early June and the fictional pandemic ultimately resulted in more than 3 billion cases of monkeypox and 270 million deaths by the end of the exercise.

Many people think it is not a coincidence, and the epidemic may be related to the US biolabs in Africa.
Another claim has that the epidemic was caused by escaped lab monkeys in early 2022. Three monkeys escaped their trailer after a collision on a Pennsylvania highway in January. The animals were part of a shipment of 100 cynomolgus macaque monkeys from Mauritius to an unnamed CDC-approved facility used to quarantine foreign animals. A woman  began to feel ill after she was exposed to these monkeys. This must be another coincidence.
Why did monkeypox occur in the countries that do not normally have outbreaks of this disease? Why did the United States import so many monkeys for experiments? There must be an explanation.
