Why would a bio-lab run by a shady Chinese company be operating in Reedley, CA in the central San Joaquin Valley?
What was supposed to be an empty building used only for storage was home to a black-market type of lab testing facility.
YourCentralValley.com reports that the discovery was made after a local code enforcement officer noticed this garden hose poking out a back wall of the building.
Public Health staff also observed blood, tissue and other bodily fluid samples and serums; and THOUSANDS of vials of unlabeled fluids and suspected biological material.
Additionally they found 900 genetically engineered mice, engineered to catch and carry COVID-19, living in โinhumaneโ conditions.
773 of the mice had to be euthanized, and officials found another 178 mice already dead.
โThis is an unusual situation. Iโve been in government for 25 years. Iโve never seen anything like this,โ said Reedley City Manager Nicole Zieba.
Even county health officials were left in shock.
