Report: FBI warned of Chinese researchers transporting disease samples in US before coronavirus
An FBI report obtained by Yahoo News revealed U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents stopped a Chinese researcher at the Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) in September 2019 — just months before the coronavirus outbreak. The researcher was transporting suspected samples of E.coli. The report also noted two other notable instances of Chinese nationals transporting more serious infectious disease samples.
