For clarity, the term gain of function is used to describe any field of medical research that alters an organism or disease in a way that increases transmissibility or pathogenesis.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Acting OMB Director refused to say that President Biden\u2019s budget would NOT fund the Wuhan Institute of Virology. <\/p>\n<p>YOUR tax dollars should not be used to fund the Chinese lab where COVID-19 possibly originated from. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/N8yJkGyuTO\">pic.twitter.com\/N8yJkGyuTO<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 House Republicans (@HouseGOP) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HouseGOP\/status\/1402702173922861067?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This comes as mounting evidence shows Chinese scientists manipulated bat coronaviruses while increasing their ability to infect humans. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and a Pentagon sub-agency were recently found to be giving money for those risky experiments. This is something Dr. Fauci had previously denied he was aware of regarding the lab in Wuhan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd the funds made available by the agency which Fauci heads, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, to the tune of $600,000 went to this Wuhan Institute of Virology,\u201d stated Alan Jones, host of Sky News Australia. \u201cThis is a lab involved in gain of function research that is creating more dangerous pathogens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>House Republicans said the remarks by Biden\u2019s budget chief suggest this administration will continue to give taxpayer money to the Chinese lab that evidence increasingly suggests may have played a key role in the emergence of COVID-19 and a pandemic the rocked the entire world.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If Dr. Fauci and his team know that taxpayer $$$ is going to the Chinese government, what steps did he and they take to oversee how that money was used? Well, that\u2019s exactly what I asked in my March 8, 2021, letter to HHS. They failed to answer what, if any, oversight was done<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 ChuckGrassley (@ChuckGrassley) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChuckGrassley\/status\/1402716414423748613?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/president-trump-hosts-fundraiser-for-new-gop-chair-rep-elise-stefanik\/\">President Trump Hosts Fundraiser For New GOP Chair Rep.
