Anthony Fauci is testifying before Congress this week, addressing inquiries about mask mandates, lockdowns, social distancing, and the origins of Covid-19.
The 83-year-old, formerly the NIAID director, played a pivotal role in the US COVID-19 response, raising questions about his involvement in offshoring banned gain-of-function research to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Just the News outlines 10 questions likely to be posed to Fauci:
- Were you aware of gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology?
- Why did you advocate for the natural origin theory of COVID-19 over a Wuhan lab origin?
- When did you learn about intelligence community concerns on COVID’s Chinese origin?
- Address whistleblower claims of influencing the CIA’s COVID investigation.
- Detail the government’s secret database on adverse events.
- What was your role in Operation Warp Speed?
- Explain your involvement in the COVID task force under Trump and Biden.
- Did you influence decisions on school closures and lockdowns?
- Justify your support for vaccine mandates in employment and education.
- What lessons from the pandemic can prevent future ones?
Recapping, the US banned risky gain-of-function research in 2014, but before the ban, Fauci offshored it to Wuhan. After Sars-CoV-2 emerged near the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Fauci denied a lab-leak, opting for a zoonotic intermediary species theory.
