GOP Report Accuses Fauci of Reckless Research, Links COVID-19 Pandemic to 20+ Million Deaths and $25 Trillion Costs
Dec 5, 2024, 10:02 PM
A recent report from the GOP Oversight Committee has raised serious allegations against Dr. Anthony Fauci and former NIH Director Francis Collins regarding their involvement in gain-of-function research linked to the COVID-19 pandemic. The report claims that Fauci and Collins engaged in reckless research practices in Wuhan, China, which may have contributed to the pandemic that has resulted in over 20 million deaths and incurred costs exceeding $25 trillion. Furthermore, the report accuses them of conspiring to mislead the public about the origins of the virus, specifically discrediting the lab-leak theory while promoting the notion that the virus emerged naturally. The findings suggest that Fauci and Collins violated federal policies on pandemic pathogen research and misused substantial taxpayer funding, estimated at $6.5 billion and $45 billion annually, for their activities. The GOP's final report aims to expose what it describes as corruption and negligence within the NIH and the Biden Administration's alleged obstruction of the truth.
