A secret lab was found with 1,000 lab mice, alongside vials of human blood and diseases like malaria and HIV.
“Local officials told KRON-TV that they have disposed of all the icky biohazard stuff…”
It was a good article, but this line looks like a 6 year old wrote it.
“…most notably they have destroyed a large quantity of the COOT13 virus.”
Thankfully, only girls get it.
Detail I tracked down when this was posted yesterday, reposted here for a bit of additional info:
Prestige Biotech was a creditor for and acquired the assets of Universal Meditech when the company collapsed. Prestige was storing what was left of Universal in this warehouse.
Universal Meditech was selling SARS test kits that got recalled in February of last year, which likely led to their bankruptcy. My guess is that Prestige didn’t have the available funding to properly dispose of the biohazards or care for the test subjects, ended up with a bunch of infectious mice that they couldn’t get rid of legally, and just decided to warehouse them in Fresno until they came up with a solution.
The OP’s article adds the important detail that Prestige wasn’t licensed in California, so I theorize this may become a criminal case, especially given the press it’s getting.
Thank you. Nobody could answer that question.
“as well as — scarily — diseases such as COVID-19, hepatitis, herpes and more.”

Who’s gonna bet China is going to use this to bring back headlines of their propaganda from years ago about how covid-19 actually originated in the US?
In the thread where this was posted the other day, they were saying it was a Chinese company.
Reedley, CA, which is about 20mi east-southeast of Fresno.
Oh god, the conspiracy theories that are going to arise out of this…
Whose lab, and why? They do not come cheap.
Not terrifying at all
