Republicans on a House Oversight subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic are launching an investigation into the origins of COVID-19 and whether U.S. funds were sent to a lab in Wuhan, China.
The select committee on the COVID-19 pandemic is requesting information on the origins of the virus from current and former Biden administration officials including Dr. Anthony Fauci, formerly the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and the president of EcoHealth Alliance, a non-profit pandemic prevention research organization.
“The American people deserve real answers after years of suffering through the coronavirus pandemic and related government policies," Select Subcommittee Chair Brad Wenstrup, R-Ohio, said in a statement. "This investigation must begin with where and how this virus came about so that we can attempt to predict, prepare or prevent it from happening again."
House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chair James Comer, R-Ky., and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, demanded documents and information on COVID origins from the Biden administration last year. Republicans in the last Congress also sent letters to the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. ---READ MORE HERE

House Republicans are kicking off an investigation into the origins of COVID-19 by requesting documents and testimony for current and former Biden administration officials.
The Republican chairmen of the House Oversight Committee and the Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic are seeking information, including from Dr. Anthony Fauci, concerning the idea that the coronavirus leaked accidentally from a Chinese lab.
“This investigation must begin with where and how this virus came about so that we can attempt to predict, prepare or prevent it from happening again,” Rep. Brad Wenstrup, R-Ohio, chair of the virus subcommittee, said in a statement on Monday.
Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., chairman of the oversight committee, said Republicans will “follow the facts” and "hold U.S. government officials that took part in any sort of cover-up accountable.”
The letters to Fauci, National Intelligence Director Avril Haines, Health Secretary Xavier Beccera and others are the latest effort by the new Republican majority to make good on promises made during the 2022 midterms campaign. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to relevant/related stories and resources:
