Ostro's "Blood Miracle" Has Been Investigated

On a statue of the Virgin Mary holding the baby Jesus in Ostro, a Sorbian village in Germany, a phenomenon appeared on 16 March that looked like blood on the forehead of Mary and Jesus Christ.

The statue is located in a field chapel behind a fence. The Diocese of Dresden-Meissen asked a certain Klaus Reinhardt, Professor of Applied Zoology at the Technical University of Dresden, to investigate the phenomenon.

According to Reinhardt, the red spots were caused by mites, which migrate upwards when the temperature rises, accumulating on the two foreheads.
