According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), gain of function research involves the genetic modification and experimentation of viruses and pathogens to increase strength and transmissibility.
At a Senate hearing in May of 2021, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and chief medical adviser to the president, adamantly declared to Congress, “The NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology [in China],” where leaders and investigators from around the world believe the COVID-19 virus originated.
The Daily Wire reported last week, “During a congressional hearing [last Wednesday] examining the origins of the coronavirus pandemic and gain-of-function research, multiple scientist witnesses contradicted Dr. Anthony Fauci’s claim that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) never funded gain of function research.”
Dr. Richard Ebright, Rutgers University microbiologist and chemistry professor and Waksman Institute of Microbiology laboratory director, emphatically declared in the Senate hearing, “The statements made on repeated occasions to the public, to the press and to policymakers by the NIAID director, Dr. Fauci, have been untruthful. I do not understand why those statements are being made because they are demonstrably false.”
The full hearing is still available to watch via C-SPAN, and I encourage you watch it and hear the damning evidence for yourself.
