Congressional Report Reveals Fauci's Department Concealed Risky Monkeypox Experiments for Nine Years
Jun 12, 2024, 11:30 AM
A recent Congressional report has revealed that Dr. Anthony Fauci's department, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), concealed plans to create a mutant monkeypox virus with a potential case fatality rate of up to 15 percent. The House Energy and Commerce Committee's investigation found that federal health officials misled lawmakers and the public about the nature and risks of these gain-of-function experiments. The report also uncovered that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) falsely claimed that such experiments were never proposed or approved. This revelation has led to significant criticism, with some lawmakers calling for Fauci to be held accountable for his role in these activities.
