Fauci Now Says the NIH Was Funding Viral Research But It Did Not Lead to the Covid Pandemic

Fauci There s a ░░░░░░░░ between the viruses that ░░░░░░░░ funded by the NIH ░░░░░░░░ award versus anything else ░░░░░░░░ else in China might ░░░░░░░░ doing GRIFFITH Excellent Fauci ░░░░░░░░ were talking about did ░░░░░░░░ NIH GRIFFITH You re ░░░░░░░░ about what you funded ░░░░░░░░ What we funded GRIFFITH ░░░░░░░░ right Fauci And that ░░░░░░░░ the point GRIFFITH And ░░░░░░░░ that goes to my ░░░░░░░░ question because I thought ░░░░░░░░ might go there and ░░░░░░░░ appreciate that Fauci Right ░░░░░░░░ Because in an off ░░░░░░░░ record member level briefing ░░░░░░░░ February of 2022 I ░░░░░░░░ about the likelihood of ░░░░░░░░ of a SARS related ░░░░░░░░ to have a furin ░░░░░░░░ site particularly since it ░░░░░░░░ the 12 nucleotide change ░░░░░░░░ there to make it ░░░░░░░░ to make it as ░░░░░░░░ as this was going ░░░░░░░░ And at the time ░░░░░░░░ said to me pretty ░░░░░░░░ what you just said ░░░░░░░░ I want you to ░░░░░░░░ confirm it for the ░░░░░░░░ Well that wasn t ░░░░░░░░ If that was being ░░░░░░░░ it wasn t us ░░░░░░░░ Yes GRIFFITH And you ░░░░░░░░ that for the record ░░░░░░░░ Fauci No what I ░░░░░░░░ It wasn t you ░░░░░░░░ wasn t what you ░░░░░░░░ funding Fauci What I ░░░░░░░░ saying is that I ░░░░░░░░ account nor can anyone ░░░░░░░░ for other things that ░░░░░░░░ be going on in ░░░░░░░░ which is the reason ░░░░░░░░ I have always said ░░░░░░░░ will say now I ░░░░░░░░ an open mind as ░░░░░░░░ what the origin is ░░░░░░░░ the one thing I ░░░░░░░░ for sure is that ░░░░░░░░ viruses that were funded ░░░░░░░░ the NIH phylogenetically could ░░░░░░░░ be the precursor of ░░░░░░░░ CoV 2 GRIFFITH Do ░░░░░░░░ think they could have ░░░░░░░░ it without the humanized ░░░░░░░░ that we gave them ░░░░░░░░ Could have done what ░░░░░░░░ I crosstalk GRIFFITH Could ░░░░░░░░ done Could they have ░░░░░░░░ any other research with ░░░░░░░░ humanized mice that we ░░░░░░░░ them Would they be ░░░░░░░░ China didn t have ░░░░░░░░ humanized mice before we ░░░░░░░░ them to Wuhan Isn ░░░░░░░░ it accurate that they ░░░░░░░░ have been able to ░░░░░░░░ extra stuff with our ░░░░░░░░ Fauci I think that ░░░░░░░░ a hypothetical sorry sir ░░░░░░░░ s a hypothetical that ░░░░░░░░ can t really answer ░░░░░░░░ they could and could ░░░░░░░░ have done crosstalk GRIFFITH ░░░░░░░░ you can t say ░░░░░░░░ couldn t have happened ░░░░░░░░ I yield back Fauci ░░░░░░░░ you want me to ░░░░░░░░ a negative.” (Laughter)
