There was blood and other bodily fluids in Gatorade bottles labeled in Mandarin, samples of at least 20 potentially infectious agents including malaria, dengue fever, and COVID-19 — and a pungent odor from what turned out to be nearly 1,000 mice.

    Isn’t this is pretty much what Russia accused the USA of doing in Ukraine?

      The Russian state isn’t exactly a reliable source of information about Ukraine or the US. They also claimed the Ukrainian government were Nazis.

      This is old AF and the only thing really going on with this place is that the people running it were disgusting pigs who could care less about bio waste disposal regulations, this place needed to be shutdown because it was a public health threat.

        It never should have been active in the first place.

        I have to wonder who is in charge of monitoring medical supply orders entering from China, and who’s watching over businesses that have dozens of shell companies that are able to run bio weapons’ manufacturing on foreign soil?

        This is some scary shit.

          It’s absolutely not a bio weapons lab. It’s a COVID test manufacturing facility, they had a horribly ran research facility that was not properly disposing of their bio waste that they used for their research. So basically they weren’t properly disposing of the COVID samples that they were using for their research for creating the COVID testing equipment that they were manufacturing. There is nothing scary about except corporate and foreign disregard for rules and regulations in something pertaining to public health, this company should be barred from operating in California and the greater US as well as other WHO sponsored nations.

          The story is months old and this is basically just clickbait for the conspiracy chucklefucks.

            It’s a COVID test manufacturing facility

            Unlicensed at the city, state and federal level. The 1000 mice were bioengineered to grow COVID antibodies but (the CDC also) found “infectious agents in the refrigerators including E. coli, coronavirus, malaria, hepatitis B and C, dengue, chlamydia, human herpes, rubella and HIV.” Source
