Just for additional note:

* the owner of the lab that realized the tests (PCS Lab Saleme) is the cousin of the former secretary of health from Rio, Dr.Luizinho.

* Anvisa (brazil health regulatory agency) alleges the lab didn't have the kits to realize the blood exams and didn't present the receipts proving their purchases, leading to the suspicion they didn't do the tests at all and forged the results.

* Since many hospitals outsourced donor organ tests to the 3rd party lab, there is a precedent for more cases of infected organs, so the stored material of 286 donors will be retested by HemoRio, a state health unity.
