The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and lawmakers on Capitol Hill are sounding the alarm and plan to demand full disclosure on the extent of links to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and U.S.-funded labs.

Specifically, HHS officials tell the Daily Mail they are worried that Chinese intelligence already has access to a slew of information on DNA and biometrics because companies with this data are operating in China.

Sources said concerns are growing within the government over China's effort to expand their footprint when it comes to accessing Americans' data and researching or producing food and beverages that are sold in the U.S.

That includes research on infant stools which means babies' DNA could be accessed by Chinese intelligence.

'If the Chinese are testing baby formula and the impact on babies, then they are acquiring DNA to do it,' an official with HHS told Daily Mail. 

Another top concern among Trump administration officials are the federal grants that could be funding the foreign labs, universities and institutions that have access to this data.

Insiders at HHS, the FBI and on Capitol Hill claim companies with facilities in China are subjecting all of their information to interception by Chinese intelligence.

'Any company operating in China is subject to the Chinese Communist Party's intelligence laws, which require full cooperation with their surveillance apparatus,' Rep. Abe Hamadeh (R-Ariz.) told the Daily Mail.

The former Army intelligence officer and now U.S. lawmaker said: 'That means the CCP can access sensitive data, trade secrets, or personal information at any time – no warrant, no oversight, no transparency. It's not a question of if they have access – they do.'

'It's the price of doing business with the CCP,' Hamadeh concluded.

As the Trump administration increases scrutiny and oversight on food supply chains and those who do business in the U.S. and with countries of concern, Congress is preparing to call out specific companies.

Two people close to Capitol Hill and familiar with upcoming action tell Daily Mail that multiple congressional committees are sending letters as early as next week demanding information on the extent of cooperation and partnership with the CCP.

One company that's getting a letter is the multinational food and beverage company Danone, which owns some well-known brands like Activia yogurt; International Delight coffee creamer; plant-based milk Silk; and Evian water.
