Dr. Fauci apparently paid for the creation of covid-19
-
That is the gist of the story on Tucker Carlson this evening.
Dr. Fauci authorized the payment, by the US government, for the development of covid-19 in the Chinese lab in Wuhan.
Here is a google link that will find lots of stories about this: https://www.google.com/search?q=tucker+fauci+funding+lab+wuhan&rlz=1C1SQJL_enUS883US883&oq=tucker+fauci+funding+lab+wuhan&aqs=chrome..69i57.10139j0j15&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
It seems like this discussion has been going on for months, I don't think I was aware of it.
I got the impression from Tucker this evening that there were new developments and based on this, basically Dr. Fauci approved the funding for the development.
And of course the kicker is, the mainstream guys are defending the good doctor or ignoring the story.

If it is on the internets, it has to be true!!!!

Actually, it's been around for a few months or more.

Here, keep laughing...

We all know that creating viruses in labs has always been a thing right?
Going after Fauci as some sort of bad guy is laughable if that is one of the points.
Of all the people on the planet , he has consistently been the best even if you could prove he is only a .300 hitter.

We, the U.S. taxpayer, put money into the Wuhan lab. Period.
Gain of Function research was going on in the Wuhan lab. Period.

I can't really see why anybody would go after Fauci like this, unless it's because he occasionally made Donald Trump look like a bit of a dick, in a pretty small way.
Incidentally, if you're going to start going after people who made Donald Trump look like a bit of a dick, you might want to start a little closer to Campaign HQ.

In this case it is because it appears that we funded the research that led to the Woo-Flu
It would be nice to know when/how/why/who
And do we plan to do it again?

I think your bullshit detector might be in need of calibration.

That is an amazing allegation and I won’t dismiss it out of hand. Let’s see if it was a one night riff or something that has legs. I’d love A Glenn Greenwood on the case.

Read it if you dare!
It is pretty straight-forward public information.
NIH paid EcoHealth Alliance
Dr. Fauci is the boss
EcoHealth Alliance paid the Wuhan lab
The National Institutes of Health has awarded a grant worth $7.5 million over five years to EcoHealth Alliance, a U.S.-based nonprofit that hunts emerging viruses. The award comes months after NIH revoked an earlier grant to EcoHealth, a move scientists widely decried as the politically motivated quashing of research vital to preventing the next coronavirus pandemic.
EcoHealth's bat research in China was entirely funded through the $3.7 million NIH grant. A small portion — about $76,000 per year — was used to pay the Wuhan lab for its on-the-ground work.
Funded by NIH
Let's go to the NIH web site and see who is the director?

A familiar face!
Why The U.S. Government Stopped Funding A Research Project On Bats And Coronaviruses
The U.S. government has suddenly terminated funding for a years-long research project in China that many experts say is vital to preventing the next major coronavirus outbreak.
Nonetheless, at an April 17 news conference, President Trump said he had given instructions to check if any U.S. funding was slated for the Wuhan Institute, and if so, he said, it would immediately be terminated. Days later, on April 24, the National Institutes of Health, or NIH — which was providing the grant for the project — notified EcoHealth Alliance that the money was being canceled, as first reported by Politico.

I don't consider it an allegation. AFAIK, those are facts.

@renauda said in Dr. Fauci apparently paid for the creation of covid-19:
Taxpayers money went into a foreign research lab on something or another that undoubtedly involved a legitmate US based partner!
Oh, the harumpfing indignation of it all!
It happens all the time the world over.
But it doesn't usually generate a world-wide pandemic.
In this case, that is a distinct possibility. Not proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, but a distinct possibility.
I don't think the ultimate goal of this is to eviscerate Fauci, as much as it is to pin the tail on the Chinese donkey...

EcoHealth Alliance paid the Wuhan labThe funding for EcoHealth Alliance/Wuhan lab was re-approved in 2019 under the Trump administration. So, really, it’s Trump’s fault.

Everything else is.
