Thousands of Americans potentially Exposed to Toxic Covid and pregnancy Tests Made At Chinese-Run Biolab in California
- The warehouse was filled with thousands of vials of diseases, blood, and tissues
Tens of thousands of Americans may have used Covid and pregnancy tests made at a filthy, Chinese-run biolab that housed dangerous viruses like
HIV and malaria.
The research facility was busted earlier this year in the sleepy
California town of Reedley, where investigators found
disease-riddled mice and hundreds of samples of pathogens, blood, and dubious chemicals piled up in storage boxes and fridges.
The lab was run by Universal Meditech Inc, a company with strong ties to
China, which made unlicensed Covid and pregnancy tests sold across Texas and California as far back as October 2021.
Dr William Schaffner, a professor of infectious diseases at Vanderbilt University, told DailyMail.com there was a contamination risk because the tests were made 'in an environment that's extraordinarily bad.'
Earlier this year the FDA recalled 56,300 Universal Meditech Covid tests that were sold across the two states tests earlier this year because they had never obtained approval to be sold in the first place.
