FBI Searches Illinois COVID Testing Lab That Received $124 Million From Federal Government

On Saturday, the FBI searched the Illinois headquarters of a national chain of coronavirus testing sites that have received more than $124 million from the federal government in reimbursements.

The testing sites, known as the Center for COVID Control, operate across the country, but the company and its main lab are registered at the same address in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, USA Today reported. The company and its main lab have received more than $124 million from the federal government in reimbursements for coronavirus testing.

“The FBI was conducting court-authorized law enforcement activity in Rolling Meadows yesterday,” FBI Chicago office spokesperson Siobhan Johnson told USA Today.

Annie Thompson, a spokesperson for Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul’s office, told the outlet that Raoul “is absolutely committed to protecting residents from those who attempt to profit off of the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.”

“We are working with the FBI and other law enforcement partners and will not comment on ongoing investigations as we work to hold accountable individuals who engage in unlawful conduct,” Thompson added.- READ MORE
