Chinese Bio Lab in California
U.S. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is vowing to shine a congressional spotlight on a Chinese-linked bio lab in California. Local code enforcement officials discovered it operating illegally, and court documents reveal that lab mice found within were “genetically engineered to catch and carry the COVID-19 virus.”
Located in Reedley, it was operated by a company called Prestige BioTech, which is registered in Nevada but not licensed for business in California.
The city fire department called the lab a “hazard to the community” and a possible source of explosions and other health threats. The Fresno County Department of Health reported finding thousands of gallons of biological fluids and samples of at least 20 pathogens such as HIV, malaria, SARS, and E. coli.
