Here&#8217;s what we know:<\/p>\n<p>-The lab was run by Prestige Biotech Inc, whose owners live in China.<\/p>\n<p>-The Newsom Administration awarded the company a $360,000 tax credit in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>-The lab was operating without a license and was committing numerous code violations.<\/p>\n<p>-Mice at the lab were &#8220;genetically engineered to catch and carry&#8221; COVID and other diseases.&#8221; Toxic chemicals, vials of blood, and other materials were also discovered.<\/p>\n<p>-Fresno&#8217;s city manger said: &#8220;They were bad actors. They never came to the city and they moved in in the middle of the night. Those are pretty big elements that tell us they did not want us to know they were here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>-The CDC told the Associated Press it &#8220;has taken no further action in this matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<pre>By Congressman Kevin Kiley, U.S. House of Representatives, California\u2019s 3rd Congressional District, El Dorado County.<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newsom Administration awarded the company a $360,000.  &#8220;operating without a license.&#8221; Mice at the Unlicensed Lab were &#8220;genetically engineered to catch and carry COVID and other diseases.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1462,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"source_name":"Congressman Kevin Kiley","source_url":"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KevinKileyCA","via_name":"","via_url":"","override_template":"0","override":[{"template":"7","single_blog_custom":"","parallax":"1","fullscreen":"0","layout":"no-sidebar-narrow","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"float","share_float_style":"share-normal","show_share_counter":"1","show_view_counter":"1","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_category":"1","show_post_reading_time":"0","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","show_zoom_button":"0","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_prev_next_post":"0","show_popup_post":"1","number_popup_post":"1","show_author_box":"1","show_post_related":"1","show_inline_post_related":"1"}],"override_image_size":"0","image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"crop-500","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-500"}],"trending_post":"0","trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post":"0","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","sponsored_post_name":"","sponsored_post_url":"","sponsored_post_logo_enable":"0","sponsored_post_logo":"","sponsored_post_desc":"","disable_ad":"0"},"jnews_primary_category":{"id":"","hide":""},"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.4 -
