It's more of a breeding facility. The locals call it the "Monkey Farm". They probably want them to be as disease free as possible for the labs that buy them.

There is also a controversial "Monkey Island" on Morgan Island in St. Helena Sound.

Before I commented, and did a search to read about Alpha Genesis. Their website says one of their services is conducting experimental research on monkeys as designed by the customer.

I am not saying you are wrong. Your comment suggests you know the facility or at least live in the area and have some personal knowledge which certainly trumps anything I know (limited to searching the internet). After seeing your comment above, I did another search and the very top result was Google generated with a Q&A about this facility and the monkeys getting loose - and the first Q/A I saw had an answer that stated the monkeys at the facility are injected with disease (it is a confusing QA and I question the origin of what is posted).
