The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has admitted that U.S. taxpayer funds were used to support gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), where classified documents suggest that COVID-19 was created and leaked. This revelation has sparked accusations of a cover-up by top officials, including Dr. Anthony Fauci and his senior advisor, Dr. David Morens. Morens allegedly deleted government records and conspired with EcoHealth Alliance's Peter Daszak to restore Daszak's grant, despite Daszak facing debarment. The House Select Subcommittee has sent a letter to the NIH, suggesting a conspiracy at the highest levels to avoid public transparency. The subcommittee's investigation has led to the suspension of federal funding to EcoHealth Alliance and proposed debarring them from future funds. The controversy has intensified calls for accountability and consequences for those involved. Fauci's chief-of-staff misspelled names in emails to evade FOIA searches. Fauci awarded Andersen $8.9 million after Andersen published a paper claiming COVID did not have a lab origin.
