Michael J. Fox — Open Freezer Door Cost Foundation Millions
EXCLUSIVE
Michael J. Fox‘s foundation is attacking a Parkinson’s lab for destroying tens of thousands of critical samples … and setting back much-looked-for research in the process.
The Foundation claims in a new lawsuit … Coriell Institute exposed more than 25,000 specimens to the elements by leaving a freezer door open. The samples were supposed to be kept at negative 80 degrees Celsius but all of the bio-specimens thawed … ruining them.
Michael’s group claims the 5-year project is now seriously compromised … and they’re out more than $ 3 million precious dollars.
It’s unclear how much it set Parkinson’s research back, but the lawsuit makes it appear it’s a big deal.
