The Republican-led select subcommittee investigating the COVID-19 pandemic kicked off its first public event of the 118th Congress on Tuesday with a roundtable of experts.
CNN and MSNBC shot down the possibility of COVID-19 originating from a Wuhan lab.
"What we have now is a complete lack of trust and confidence in the public health sector…and that's due to a coordinated spread of misinformation and disinformation that was for political gain, for the most part — in a lot of part — by public health officials like yourself," Texas GOP Rep. Ronny Jackson said during one of the tenser moments in the hours-long event.
Georgia Republican Rep. Rich McCormick compared COVID vaccine aversion during the height of the pandemic to doctors in the 19th century largely doubting the fact that washing their hands held health benefits for themselves and their patients."We do more harm than good by — to treat people with booster shots right now, if you have immunity," McCormick said.
Greene said"children truly suffered en masse" during the closures and"natural immunity is something that should have been trusted, but for some reason, all common sense, and all knowledge went out the window."Three of the event’s witnesses — doctors Jay Bhattacharya, Martin Kulldorf, and Marty Makary — are part of a small group of medical experts known as the Norfolk Group.
