Dr. Fauci and his band of medical experimenters

How Fauci and NIH gave millions to fund Peter Daszak's 'crazy' gain-of-function research at Wuhan lab: Proposal to help prevent the next pandemic instead may have created a 'road map' for COVID-19

• New report lays bare details of EcoHealth Alliance's risky gain-of-function work
• In 2014, NIH approved $3.7 million grant to EcoHealth on bat coronaviruses
• Funding supported 'crazy' experiments at Wuhan lab, one virologist says
• Another 2018 grant proposal was rejected for 'horrific lack of common sense'
• EcoHealth wanted to modify coronaviruses with features similar to COVID
• Though the proposal was rejected, it could have provided a 'road map' for China
• EcoHealth founder Daszak has long insisted that lab-leak scenario is impossible 
• Scientists have still not found conclusive evidence of where the virus emerged
