Fauci tells Rand Paul he is ‘completely incorrect' over Wuhan lab theory

Dr Fauci told senator Rand Paul that he was “incorrect“ for accusing federal agencies of funding Wuhan’s institute of virology – and the subsequent development of Covid.

Rand Paul had falsely accused federal agencies of funding gain-of-function research in Wuhan, during a congressional hearing on Tuesday.

It is alleged that Covid-19 was developed through gain-of-function research in the institute.

Fauci told Paul: “You are entirely and completely incorrect that the NIH (National Institute of Health) has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan institute.”
