The report recommended the NIH and Department of Health and Human Services \u201cimmediately commence suspension and debarment proceedings against both EcoHealth and Dr. Daszak\u201d and the Justice Department to \u201cevaluate if Dr. Daszak violated any federal laws.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2-long d-flex justify-content-center\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; \" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-348512074\">\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1379703300879-0\" class=\"mb-30\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-6da3737177bb3b8bdb78a3580f0be43d fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-2\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-6da3737177bb3b8bdb78a3580f0be43d\"><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThese revelations undermine your credibility as well as every factual assertion you made during your transcribed interview,\u201d the committee chairs <a href=\"https:\/\/oversight.house.gov\/release\/ecohealth-alliance-president-peter-daszak-to-appear-for-public-hearing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wrote<\/a> ahead of Wednesday\u2019s hearing. \u201cThe Committees have a right and an obligation to protect the integrity of their investigations, including the accuracy of testimony during a transcribed interview.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As Helen Raleigh previously\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/02\/28\/fauci-and-ecohealths-peter-daszak-silenced-lab-leak-conspiracy-theory-congress-shouldnt-let-them-forget-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reported<\/a>\u00a0at The Federalist, <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/ecohealth-alliance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EcoHealth Alliance<\/a> is a nongovernmental organization that from 2014-2020, sent \u201cmore than half a million dollars\u2019 worth of U.S. government grants, including those from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) with Anthony Fauci\u2019s approval, to the Wuhan Institute of Virology to conduct gain-of-function research on bat coronaviruses.\u201d While the Trump administration <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/trump-admin-pulls-nih-grant-coronavirus-research-ties\/story?id=70418101\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">axed<\/a> government funds for EcoHealth Alliance in 2020, the group has <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/10\/05\/disgraced-ecohealth-alliance-should-be-banished-to-wuhan-but-fauci-just-gave-it-millions-more-tax-dollars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">received<\/a> federal grants since Joe Biden was sworn into office.

Daszak Dismissed Lab-Leak Theory While Working with Wuhan Lab<\/h2>\n<p>Much <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessinsider.com\/fauci-throws-cold-water-conspiracy-theory-coronavirus-escaped-chinese-lab-2020-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">like<\/a> Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, Daszak aggressively denigrated the theory that SARS-CoV-2 leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China. In February 2020, the EcoHealth president orchestrated and signed a letter published in <em>The Lancet<\/em> that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelancet.com\/journals\/lancet\/article\/PIIS0140-6736(20)30418-9\/fulltext\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">referred<\/a> to the lab-leak hypothesis as a \u201cconspiracy theor[y].\u201d Co-signed by 26 other scientists, the statement read: \u201cWe stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-7bf8bd3f344ddec02edcccc516bb4415 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-6\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-7bf8bd3f344ddec02edcccc516bb4415\"><\/div>\n<p>During his testimony, Daszak told Rep. Raul Ruiz, D-Calif., that the \u201cconspiracies\u201d he and the letter\u2019s authors were referring to were claims there are \u201cHIV inserts into the virus\u201d and that it \u201ccontains snake DNA.\u201d When later pressed by Democrats\u2019 counsel on why he and the other scientists didn\u2019t mention such specifics in their letter, Daszak claimed it\u2019s because there\u2019s a \u201cword limit on letters to <em>Lancet<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ruiz questioned Daszak on his <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2023\/02\/28\/fauci-and-ecohealths-peter-daszak-silenced-lab-leak-conspiracy-theory-congress-shouldnt-let-them-forget-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">failure<\/a> to disclose EcoHealth\u2019s then-working relationship with the WIV when he signed the aforementioned letter. Despite this fact, Daszak and the authors \u201cdeclare[d] no competing interests\u201d at the end of their <em>Lancet<\/em> statement. <\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>The Lancet<\/em> later requested that you expand on your initial disclosures,\u201d Ruiz said. \u201cIn turn, you elaborated on your coronavirus work in China. However, your updated disclosures do not explicitly acknowledge that you had partnered with the Wuhan Institute of Virology. That is a glaring omission, particularly when, as you stated \u2026 your updated disclosures are otherwise extremely detailed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The California Democrat further highlighted an email Daszak sent to colleagues before the letter\u2019s publication in which he expressed concern that EcoHealth\u2019s \u201ccollaboration\u201d with the WIV may be unearthed if he signed the statement. Ruiz also referenced a series of other questionable actions Daszak took to seemingly hide EcoHealth\u2019s work with the WIV, such as requesting <em>The Lancet<\/em> not designate him as the corresponding author and directing a fellow signatory to \u201ctake a press inquiry [he] had personally received.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-6fd2435ac8f4ef8f815397992a5ac420 fdrlst__b89e9-paragraph-10\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-6fd2435ac8f4ef8f815397992a5ac420\"><\/div>\n<p>When given the chance to respond, Daszak claimed he took those actions because he thought it would be \u201cinappropriate\u201d for him to be listed first since some of the letter\u2019s authors are \u201cfar more higher ranked in the system,\u201d and all signatories \u201cspeak as one voice.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><em>The Lancet<\/em>\u2018s top editor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/news\/2022\/jan\/6\/the-lancet-chides-wuhan-defender-daszak\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">penned<\/a> a column in December 2021 blasting Daszak for not disclosing his competing interests prior to the letter\u2019s publication. <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Daszak Had Contacts with U.S. Intel Agencies Before Covid<\/h2>\n<p>While being questioned by Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., Daszak claimed he was contacted by numerous intel agencies during the federal government\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-us-canada-57260009\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">investigation<\/a> into the origins of Covid, including the FBI, CIA, and Defense Intelligence Agency.<\/p>\n<p>Comer probed Daszak on whether he has a \u201cstanding relationship\u201d with intel agencies outside of the aforementioned interactions, and Daszak said he did not. The Kentucky Republican further asked Daszak if he has ever been an \u201cinformant\u201d for one of these agencies, prompting the Ecohealth president to claim: \u201cYou asked me if I have a standing relationship with any agencies in the intelligence community. The answer is no.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>After being asked two additional times to affirm that he has never been an informant, Daszak told Comer, \u201cnot to [his] knowledge\u201d but that he\u2019s \u201cprovided answers\u201d to questions agencies have posed to him in his capacity as a U.S. citizen. Daszak explained he had conversations with the FBI before the Covid outbreak, claiming the agency wanted to learn about \u201cemerging disease threats\u201d and what information EcoHealth possessed about \u201cwhere on the planet the next virus is likely to emerge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s a question for the U.S. intelligence agency,\u201d Daszak said when asked whether the FBI knew what was happening at the WIV before Covid emerged.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"> <span class=\"XZdvLEH6l5\"><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea9 Rep.

EcoHealth Delayed Submitting Its Research Progress Report to the U.S. Government<\/h2>\n<p>Another issue raised during Wednesday\u2019s hearing was EcoHealth\u2019s failure to submit a required report detailing its coronavirus research to the NIH by a specified deadline. As laid out in House Republicans\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/oversight.house.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2024.05.01-SSCP-Report_FINAL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report<\/a>, federal grant recipients (such as EcoHealth) must submit progress reports to their funding agency. These documents provide the designated department with \u201cupdates on the progress of the work funded by the grant and any anticipated changes in the research approach or direction going into the next funding year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the GOP report, EcoHealth submitted its year five progress report to NIH on Aug. 3, 2021 \u2014 nearly two years after the original Sept. 30, 2019, deadline. Daszak previously testified (and maintained on Wednesday) that EcoHealth attempted to submit the required report but was unable to do so because it got \u201clocked out\u201d of the NIH system. A forensic audit conducted by the agency, however, \u201ccould not verify the claim.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Daszak contended that his team reached out to NIH\u2019s tech support division via phone but received no response and did not bother contacting the \u201crelevant grant officer\u201d at NIAID about the matter. As noted in the report, these claims seemingly run counter to actions Daszak took when submitting previous progress reports. In those cases, he would send an email to the grant officer after uploading such analyses to the NIH system. <\/p>\n<p>There were also major discrepancies between the initial draft of the year five progress report and the version ultimately submitted to NIH, which Rep. Morgan Griffith, R-Va., highlighted in detail.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"> <span class=\"3ksDjaZ0VJnAScTRCvhoNutQg8Il6r1i4W5dzfqpmPw9XBML7EeyK2xOF\"><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea8There are severe discrepancies between EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak&#8217;s closed-door testimony and evidence uncovered by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/COVIDSelect?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@COVIDSelect<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Today, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RepMGriffith?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RepMGriffith<\/a> confronted Dr. Daszak: &#8220;You didn&#8217;t tell me the truth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>WATCH the full exchange\ud83d\udc47 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ygAH2EQk13\">pic.twitter.com\/ygAH2EQk13<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic (@COVIDSelect) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/COVIDSelect\/status\/1785698474668753262?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 1, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/span> <\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Daszak Refused to Condemn Big Tech Censorship of Accurate Covid Info<\/h2>\n<p>The issue of Big Tech censorship of factual Covid information was also raised during Wednesday\u2019s hearing. While questioning Daszak, Rep. Michael Cloud, R-Texas, referenced the federal government\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/tag\/missouri-v-biden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">efforts<\/a> to pressure social media companies to censor posts about Covid containing accurate information.<\/p>\n<p>Daszak claimed he did not have any contact with these companies throughout the pandemic. When the Texas congressman asked whether he thought the federal government\u2019s collusion with Big Tech to \u201cban\u201d certain scientific analyses \u201cbenefited science,\u201d however, Daszak refused to provide a straightforward answer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think there\u2019s been a lot of misinformation, there still is, on social media,\u201d Daszak said. \u201cI think it\u2019s good that social media companies are going to scientists to get information about whether the data they\u2019re putting out is true or false.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Cloud interjected, citing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefp.com\/p\/i-fought-government-censorship-and-won\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">suppression<\/a> of renowned medical professionals, and asked Daszak if he\u2019s concerned about such censorious efforts. The EcoHealth president (again) refused to condemn them and encouraged people to trust government health officials.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe emotions during a pandemic are very high,\u201d Daszak said. \u201cI think the emotions lead to sort of hyperreactions to some of these things. I think that we should trust our scientists. I think the head of a government institute is set up to work on [these matters].\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Daszak Communicated with Fauci\u2019s Adviser About EcoHealth Grant Renewal <\/h2>\n<p>Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., asked Daszak whether he had any conversations about EcoHealth\u2019s grant reinstatement with Dr. David Morens, the senior scientific adviser to the director of the NIAID who previously worked for Fauci. As previously mentioned, EcoHealth had its U.S. funding reinstated under Biden after losing access to such funds during the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p>While initially expressing uncertainty about corresponding with Morens, Daszak admitted that the NIAID official gave him advice on how to get EcoHealth\u2019s grant reinstated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI asked everybody who had any knowledge about how NIH\u201d grant reinstatement works, Daszak said, clarifying that Morens was among these individuals. <\/p>\n<p>Daszak further testified that he was \u201caware\u201d Morens was \u201csometimes\u201d using his private email to communicate with him, claiming their conversations were \u201cpersonal matters.\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/with%20colleagues\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Records<\/a> obtained by House Republicans indicate Morens used his private email account to communicate with colleagues to avoid open record requests.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, [does a] personal matter [include discussions] about reinstating a public grant?\u201d McCormick asked, to which Daszak replied: \u201cIt\u2019s not his job to reinstate it. This is me asking for his advice as a friend and colleague.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>McCormick also probed Daszak on whether he believed Morens\u2019 role in advising him on how to get EcoHealth\u2019s federal grant reinstated undermined NIAID\u2019s eventual decision to restore the funds. Daszak appeared to excuse Morens\u2019 actions, saying that \u201cif that were true, then everybody else at NIH who advised [him] on how to get it reinstated \u2026 would have also undermined [such a decision].\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Other issues raised during Wednesday\u2019s hearing and the aforementioned <a href=\"https:\/\/oversight.house.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2024.05.01-SSCP-Report_FINAL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GOP subcommittee report<\/a> are allegations that EcoHealth \u201cviolated its grant terms and conditions by failing to report a potentially dangerous experiment conducted by the WIV\u201d and that Daszak \u201comitted the material fact that unanalyzed samples and sequences \u2014 that the U.S. paid for \u2014 are in the custody and control of the WIV.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fdrlst__b89e9-0b0981d00fc0aa4dffbc25a569abcfa8 fdrlst__b89e9-after-post-content\" id=\"fdrlst__b89e9-0b0981d00fc0aa4dffbc25a569abcfa8\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\">    \t\t\t\t\t   \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peter Daszak, President of EcoHealth Alliance, testified at the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic about the organization&#8217;s involvement in gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology before the 2020 Covid outbreak.
