'Shock after shock': A visit to China's secret biolab in California
aol.com
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.

To anyone who hasn't read the article or watched the video yet: don't bother. It makes a lot of assumptions and answers very little. Really poor journalism.
It goes beyond that. They took news that broke 4.5 months ago:
https://midvalleytimes.com/article/news/2023/07/25/investigation-on-reedley-building-uncovers-bio-health-hazards/
Then they remove any and all mentions that the facility was manufacturing testing kits for COVID, HIV, and pregnancy tests (do a cntrl+F for test in the OP article). Now, without informing the users that testing kits were being manufactured, the presence of disease samples and rats sounds more nefarious.
It would be like reporting that tons of fertilizer were found in a building, and not reporting that the facility belongs to a landscaping company.
I don't know. Sounds pretty nefarious to me. They were infecting mice and human tissues with who-knows-what and disposing of them illegally, including in municipal waste.
Even producing tests in sketchy, illegal labs is pretty fucked up.
Thank you for your service o7
I got as far as "Gatorade bottles labelled in Mandarin" in the summary to know that it's shotty journalism lmao
