STORY AT-A-GLANCE The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) — a division of the National Institute of Health (NIH) headed by Dr. Anthony Fauci since 1984 — has, for years, provided grants to the EcoHealth Alliance and others to conduct gain-of-function (GoF) research on coronaviruses
In a May 11, 2021, Senate hearing, Fauci denied ever having funded GoF research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). This despite clear documentation proving otherwise
In March 2021 the WIV deleted mentions of its collaboration with the NIAID/NIH and other American research partners from its website. It also deleted descriptions of GoF on the SARS virus
The NIH/NIAID has funded GoF research to the tune of at least $41.7 million. Up until 2014, this research was conducted by Ralph Baric at the University of North Carolina (UNC). After 2014, when federal funding of GoF was banned, such research was funneled to the WIV via the EcoHealth Alliance
In August 2020, the NIAID announced a five-year, $82-million investment in a new global network of Centers for Research in Emerging Infectious Diseases that will conduct GoF experiments to "determine what genetic or other changes make [animal] pathogens capable of infecting humans"
Just a clarification to the title on this post. Fauci wasn't funding Joseph Mercola. This was an article with "analysis by" Joseph Mercola. I was confused when I first read the title so wanted to clarify.
Mercola actually posted on FB today stating, "The Wuhan lab leak has been discredited. Turns out the lab workers were all wearing masks, so there was no way they could have been infected." ??
