NIH's Lawrence Tabak Admits Funding Gain-of-Function Research in Wuhan Through EcoHealth Alliance, Contradicting Fauci
May 16, 2024, 10:21 PM
Lawrence Tabak, Principal Deputy Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), admitted to Congress that the NIH funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology through EcoHealth Alliance. This admission contradicts previous statements by Dr. Anthony Fauci, who had denied that the NIH funded such research. The funding occurred in the months and years leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic. The research aimed to make coronaviruses more infectious. Rep. Debbie Lesko questioned Tabak during the testimony. The entire operation was coordinated by EcoHealth and Peter Daszak. Rand Paul, who had previously asserted these claims, was proven right. This revelation has sparked significant controversy and calls for accountability.
