Sen. Rand Paul plans to use his position as chair of a committee to investigate the origins of Covid-19, with potential implications for the reorganization of the NIH. He is critical of scientists and science agencies, particularly the NIH and Dr. Anthony Fauci, accusing government officials of misleading the public about U.S. funding of research in Wuhan, China. Paul and House Republicans are looking into NIH funding of pathogen-altering research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology and grants to the EcoHealth Alliance. This investigation could shed light on the controversial origins of the virus and the role of U.S. government funding.
