Rand Paul (R-Ky.) questions National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci during a hearing of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee about the ongoing response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the Dirksen Senate Office Building on Capitol Hill on November 04, 2021 in Washington, D.C.

Rand Paul (R-Ky.) is yet again urging Dr. Anthony Fauci to admit to National Institutes of Health funding of gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re not going to get anywhere close to trying to prevent another lab leak of this dangerous sort of experiment. You won\u2019t admit that it\u2019s dangerous. And for that lack of judgement, I think it\u2019s time for you to resign,\u201d Paul told Fauci.<\/p>\n<p>During a Senate hearing on Thursday, Paul cited evidence that Wuhan scientists created viruses that don\u2019t exist in nature. They also reportedly worked on making viruses more infectious.<\/p>\n<p>The senator said Fauci\u2019s NIH changed the definition of gain-of-function once its involvement was revealed. Paul referenced the altering of the definition on the NIH\u2019s website that originally defined that sort of research as \u201ca type of research the modifies a biological agent so that it confers new or enhanced activity to that agent.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RandPaul?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@RandPaul<\/a> nails Dr. Fauci to the wall on dangerous gain-of-function research:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For that lack of judgement, I think it&#8217;s time that you resign.&#8221; \ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ofmBKgfbeA\">pic.twitter.com\/ofmBKgfbeA<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Young Americans for Liberty (@YALiberty) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/YALiberty\/status\/1456299512272728073?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 4, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe preponderance of evidence now points towards this coming from the lab. And what you\u2019ve done is change the definition on your website to try and cover your a** basically. That\u2019s what you\u2019ve done, you changed the website to try to have a new definition that doesn\u2019t include the risky research that\u2019s going on. Until you admit that it\u2019s risky, we\u2019re not going to get anywhere,\u201d Paul stated.<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Paul pointed out the NIH has admitted it funded those experiments through EcoHealth Alliance.&nbsp;In response, Fauci again refused to acknowledge those concerns.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/rep-mccarthy-democrats-are-tone-deaf-if-they-pass-reconciliation-bill\/\">Rep.
