House Republicans have launched a probe into the origins of COVID by issuing a series of letters to current and former Biden administration officials.
House Republicans launched an investigation Monday into the origins of COVID-19 by issuing a series of letters to current and former Biden administration officials asking for documents and testimony, the Associated Press reported.
The Republican chairs of the House Oversight Committee and the subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic requested information from several people, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, about the hypothesis that the coronavirus was accidentally leaked from a Chinese lab. But in a sign that the investigation may take on partisan tones, Rep. James Comer, a Tennessee Republican who chairs the oversight committee, added that Republicans will “follow the facts” and “hold U.S. government officials that took part in any sort of cover-up accountable.”
That would contradict a U.S. intelligence community assessment released in unclassified form in August 2021 that said analysts do not believe the virus was a bioweapon, although it may have been leaked in a lab accident. “I have no trouble testifying — we can defend and explain everything that we’ve said,” he told reporters during a White House briefing last year.
