It was pretty sizable on the news channels I listen to (radio
to and from work.)  It seems to be characteristic of radio that
you don't hear many details (like it having worked on apes), or
eventual resolution (once the patients are out of danger, it's
no longer considered "news", I guess.)

I wonder whether anything scientifically interesting will surface
as a result?  Major surprises are a rare things, and sometimes
point the way in new directions.  ("Medical test subjects unexpectedly
gain comic-book superpowers!"  Nah.)
