Not exactly a MAGA scandal sheet. June 4, 2024. I don't know why people have a knee-jerk defense of Fauci. Why bother? He's not an office holder. He is now meaningless. Biden's been beaten. What's the truth? In a now-infamous 2021 exchange with Sen. Rand Paul, Anthony Fauci, the former longtime head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and former chief medical advisor to the president—said that the National Institutes of Health (which oversees NIAID) "has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology." We now know this is not true. A treasure trove of documents uncovered by congressional investigators and dogged investigative journalists has established that the NIAID was funding gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses at the Wuhan Lab via a grant to the scandal-plagued nonprofit EcoHealth Alliance (which the Biden administration just debarred from receiving federal funding). These revelations lead to the inescapable conclusion that Fauci was being misleading at best (and dishonest at worst) about the NIH-funded research at Wuhan. It also has fueled eminently reasonable speculation that that research precipitated a lab leak at Wuhan which caused the COVID-19 pandemic. |
